I have been banded for 4 1/2 years- the first two years I lost 80 lbs and was feeling pretty good about myself. I have been gaining weight steadily back for the last two years- 30 ish lbs. I am upset with myself for not getting close enough to goal- at this point I have about 80 lbs to lose to be where i would like to be. I am never full but most foods get stuck most days- its like a slow drain...although.I don't think I have too much restriction either-never ever full. It has been like this since the beginining. I don't really feel like it ever worked as it was supposed to. I switched doctors and both seem to think all is fine. Besides just a rant(because I am sick of feeling like a failure), I am not sure if I should go for a revision....I mostly think if I could just get an excercise program started and a better diet I can prevail.What would make me think bypass would be any different... I eat most anything and a lot of it so I am stuck and miserable.... Any advice or comisserating(lol)...?
