I had my surger in July, 2006. I didn't get my fills like I should have, because I live 5 hours away and didn't do them as often as I should have. I lost 75 pounds after 3.5 years and was doing good and then got preggo...I got a total unfill at 3 months because I could barely eat anything and wanted to be able to eat for my baby. I got the total unfill because I new that I would not be able to make the 5 hour (one way) trip to get unfills if necessary. Over the duration of my pregnancy...I gained all my weight back. My baby is 11 months old now and I have only gotten 2 fills since he was born. I feel some restriction and am trying to get back on track with my diet and excercise. I have lost 35 pounds now and am back down to 240 at this time. I found a fill Dr. closer to my home and she does fills using xray. The only problem is....she charges 250.00. I am still happy with my decision to get the band and would do everything the same...No regrets here.
