Lapband to Gastric Bypass
I had a lapband inserted in 2009. I lost about 60 pounds which were considered successful. Started to gain weight and have problems keeping things down after having to take fluid out for breast reduction surgery in 2016. April of 2016 had the band removed and have now transitioned to gastric bypass. I just had the surgery a few days ago September 6th. I'm looking forward to being healthy again. I'm larger than I've ever been and have no one to blame but myself. Ate everything I could while waiting for the bypass surgery; like it was my last day of food. Now regretting those extra pounds I'm left to get rid of. Not worth it so to anyone who is pre-op don't do what I did.
