  1. Your weight is your decision. I recently had to be remanded due to a slip. I gained 20 lbs AFTER my new band. My sister (who weighs 110 soaking wet and ALWAYS has) keeps telling me I look soooo much better since I've gained it back. But I'm Not happy! I started at 273 and am now at 190. I'm 5 8. I understand bodies are different and I can't weigh 175 without looking sick. It's your choice. Your body. Ignore the haters!

    Need to get back on track

    I was rebanded after a slip in February. I've gained 25 lbs!!! Very discouraging. I went yesterday for another fill. Up to 9 CC now. We can do this! We've been through too much to give up.

    Back pain

    I had pain starting. In my shoulder &upper back. Very severe pain. It would ease off and start back after I ate. After a few months the pain traveled to mid and finally my kidney area. I had an IVP down to rule our kidney and found a slipped band. I had several unfills and was unable to eat an eventually couldn't drink or lay down without waking up choking on saliva. My stomach had folded over the band. Emergency surgery was done Please go to dr asap
  4. Does anyone take Topamax? Is it safe with our band. Heard it can cause stomach irritation. I'm suffering with migraines and need relief
  5. I had a slipped band replaced 2 months ago. Had 4CC put in. No restriction. Gained 2 lbs. Added 2 CC. Started throwing up took out 1 CC. I'm starving! So disappointed with myself. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Please help me!
