Thank you so much for this. It is really helpful. I have my consultation in one week.

Hi! I was banded with a Realize band in 2008. Went from 235 to 150 and I've been between 150 and 165 for years. I'm now having serious complications with the band. Lots of complications but the worst is an "oozing sore" around 75% of my Esophagus. I've had such great success with the band and I'm nervous about going to a RNY. I really don't want to weigh less than 150. Is a revision just going to put me back into rapid weight loss? Any revision weight loss/gain stories are greatly appreciated. I need someone to hold my hand!

Thank you, I sure hope so.

Unjury has great tasteless options and savory protein too.

Hi everyone, I'm at 9 years with my lap band (Realize Band). I'm at 145 down from 250 and have been under 160 for about 5 years. This week, I've had a few episodes where I feel just slightly queezy for several hours then all of a sudden, I find myself having horrible gagging, belching vomit that doesn't produce much other than air. I don't want to rush out to my doctor yet. Any ideas what this is all about?
