I got on this site hoping to find someone with the same issue as me! I had lapband in 2008.( I weighed 272 lbs. I now weigh 171. Goal weight is 160......) I did the same thing occasionally throwing up if I knew something wouldnt got down. That worked for a year or so but now I am full blown bulimic. I will eat whatever I want knowing I can just get rid of it. I never had a problem with bulimia before lapband. Now its just SO EASY! I hate to say it but i enjoy eating what i want and KNOWING i will not gain weight. However, after almost 2 years I am feeling the effects and need to stop. Easier said than done. I can't stop. I have an apt on Tuesday to have everything pulled out of my band in hopes I will not be able to throw up anymore. I really dont want to but know I HAVE to or I am going to eventually kill myself with this disorder.
