I did the samething. I actually ended being healthier than when I started lol. But I got back on track , eating habits excellent, and I walk and wall everywhere. I went from 341 to 227 May until present. I'm at a mind set that's permanent change. Hang in there. Don't be afraid to start fills again. I knew I was on the right path, when Igot kicked out of my support group lol. It was for people like our situation that gains back half or more than your original, pre-surgery weight. Than you lose. I didn't qualify anymore because the second time around, I lost More. So was actually a compliment! Hang in there

I had a 2nd slip last year and the doc did a revision (first time it slipped I had a doc who didn't believe they worked even though I had lost 72 lbs in 7 months -I started at 237- so he simply emptied it without doing any imaging to see how bad it was. I agree that it isn't the same. Doesn't mean it won't work if I go back to basics. I too have gained half of it back. Saw these posts and decided it was time to start logging food and exercise. Keeps me honest because I weigh, measure and put it in writing. Good luck to you. You aren't doing this walk alone.

of course you will have your band adjusted. but do it really slowly so you get used to each fill. take medication for heartburn. prilosec or something your doctor will prescribe. don't eat or drink after 7 at night. you know what to do. just take a deep breath and start in the morning. eat healthy until you see your doctor and nutritionalist. you are starting over so start at the beginning. I wish you lots of luck. also a upper gi is not out of question. so many ppl suffer from what you said you did and their band isn't in the right position.
