I heard the same thing and I would not like to have surgery again. I just had a tummy tuck 2 months ago. And they moved my port over a little but at the end of the day I am always sore or uncomfortable. So it has pros and cons. Good luck

I had my surgery in 2010 and I was 244 I am now at 191 and I haven't had a problem with weight gain but you might want to ask your doctor for adepex to control your appetite. My doctor gives that for help. But the key now is to work out like crazy. The skin is an unfortunate because I'd you we're big now you have shrunk there will be skin. Keep up with your protein shakes and start researching plastic surgeon doctors who specialize in gastric patients . They have financing

I like Premium Protein shake you can get a case at SAMs Club for $17 30grams of Protein 120 calories, 1 gram of sugar. It is so tasty SAMs only sells chocolate but Costco sells all three flavors.

TRY DR. ROSE IN FREEHOLD NJ HE IS RECOMMENDED FROM MY SURGEON FOR ALL BAND AND GASTRIC PLASTRIC SURGERY.

great post now i know exactly what surgery is for me thanks for the information

That may be the answer but maybe your body is in rest zone where you stay stag net for a period of time. Now jar your body and try another form of cardio like weight lifting spinning classes really work. This will trigger the muscles to work another way.

45yrs old here and I had my surgery 10,26,2010 and I am 54lbs down I have another 20lbs to go but I feel good and sexy. My next step is the TT and I can't wait.

Hell I wish I could offer some advise because I am down to trying to loose my last 20lbs to and since Feb. I have been the same I have a 10cc band with 8.5cc of saline so I eat very little and work out like crazy now. All I can think of is shocking the body into another workout. Because our bodies get used to the same routine.

Tammyj I think your pics are amazing I am in the process of researching for a surgeon now my Lapband doctor did refer me to a colleuge of his a Dr. Rose in Freehold NJ. I had my surgery Oct. 29, 2010 and so far I love the way I am looking but my stomach looks just like your before pic I hate it. I am still working out I started at 245lbs and I am down to 191lbs my goal is 175lbs most people think I am smaller even though I finally have gotten into a pair of True Religon Jeans and women's not men. But for a woman of color I thought your surgeon did really well. Keep up the good work. Fab Karen Fab Karen
