Pointbeach, I feel exactly the same way. I feel I've failed Lap Band. I lost 25 pound pre surgery and 25 post surgery and I was banded a year ago. I know I fell off my routine drastically. We purchased a house, moved in, planned and had a wedding all within 6 months and I had NO time for fills or workouts for 5 months. I gained 4 pound in those 5 months and I feel horrible. BUT I'M NOT GIVING UP!! I have started getting my fills again, (2 so far) but haven't had much success yet with weight loss. I've resumed my workouts and I see loss in my clothes and know i'm putting on muscle, but I REALLY want to see it on the scale . I've re-commited myself and you should too. Keep the faith...
