Hi
10 years ago I had the gastric bypass at UCLA. I was about 400lb. I was sent to one group meeting prior to the surgery and had tree appt with the nutritionist after the surgery. I received very very little education and support through their program. I don?t know if it was because I feel through the cracks or if it was simply my own ignorance. From reading this website it seems their program has changed a lot. In about 1.5 yearsI went down to 260lb. Over the past few years I?ve gained 70lb. Until recently I carried a lot of guilt about gaining some of my weight back. I felt like a failure. But I have let that go. I?ve learned so much about my food and myself since that time. I really wish I had known about the lap band or had not had the BP. Does anyone know if you can have the lap band if you?ve had an unsuccessful BP?
