I have tried going back to the basics to get myself re-focused like I was when first banded.....just as you were. I go on the "before-band liquid diet" for a week or two to cleanse my system. Then try to kick in more exercise, less food, more good foods, do more of the good things that help us lose!!! We need to get back on the "bandwagon"!!! But everyone is right....you haven't gained it back; which by this time without the band you would have gained it back PLUS!!!
I think we go back to old habits because we "CAN" - unlike the Gastric Bypass patients, we CAN have sugar, we CAN eat anything, etc. etc. Maybe if the sugar made us ill like it does them...we would do better...
Is there really an answer to this? Not sure.....wish someone had one!!! Hang in there!
