I was banded in Sept. 2007 and after my third fill still didnt loose any weight. My doctor told me at each fill that I was not allowed to eat carbs. I am so ashamed of my failure to give up carbs, I havnt gone back to the doctor since the third fill. Is it really me? If I had know that success depended on my ability to give up carbs, I would have just stuck with Atkins and saved alot of $$$. I am soooo discouraged. Am I the only person on the planet that cant loose with the band?
