No regrets at all. I been banded 20 months at goal. Started at 258 and now 132. I would of be never got here on just dieting. The band isnt a quick fix but it's a great help!! I love my band most days. It helps me stay in check. All about Portion Control which i struggled with before banded. so I would do it again in a heart beat!

I was banded Oct 19, 2010 and my only regret is that I didn't do this a long time ago. Even though I have very little restriction so far, I LOVE my band.

NO REGRETS! i was banded on July 29th and hit my 50lb weight loss today!! It wasnt as easy as I thought it was going to be and I have had to work hard to lose the weight with both with my eating and exercising and there has been some frustrating times but I would do it all over again in a heartbeat.

Hi - No regrets other than not getting it done sooner. First band 7/26/07, slipped in 2010, 2nd band 7/20/10. So, obviously I would do it again. Started at 324 and am around 190 now. Hope to get back to 175 to 180 in 2011, but even if I don't, I still feel so much better than I did at 324.

Best wishes to you.

Sue

I am 57 and feel better than I have felt in probably 15 years. I've only been banded since September, but wish I had done this so much sooner. I'm finally getting my life back and I LOVE IT!!!!

I think i know what u mean..

I did regret it...right after i woke up from surgery....i was lke "what the hell did i do"..why did i do this..omg this is nuts

As the day progressed...that feeling was gone...and it only came back when i had a pain that scared me...

So its weird to say but yes and no...that would be my answer....yes because i had it...and no because i had it in a moment where my mind was weaker and scared

I suffer from depression so I was a bit sensitive after the surgery. It took about a month and even though right now I'm struggling to find my sweet spot I'm really happy I did it. Part of me thinks maybe I should have even gone further and gotten the sleeve but then I think of the complications that could of happend and I think the band was the safest option for me.

I had my lapband August 27, 2010 & i have not regretted it one bit! I like the others, only wish i would've done it sooner. I started out at 279 & now am 242. So i've only lost 37 pounds. Dont get me wrong, i'm so proud of myself cuz i NEVER would have been able to do it without the Lapband! I call it my Savior! I was on a downhill spiral going really fast. I haven't been able to get off any of my meds yet but i will find out at my next appt. in January. I would love to find out how GOLDNGRLL was able to lose 100 pounds in just 6 months. I do blame myself for not doing my workouts everyday like i promised i would. January 3, 2011 will start kicking my butt into gear! I'm gonna start a hike every Tuesday with my cousin that is 3 miles. The other days i will be at the gym. I am also planning on getting a Personal Trainer. I am gonna do this & be more serious about it. I have been very serious about it but not kicking it in the butt like i said i would. My eating habits have changed drastically. I no longer eat sweets, drink soda or eat all the Snacks i used to. This last fill i got on December 15, 2010 was the one for me. I think i am at "My Sweet Spot!" If i drink even Water too fast it comes right back up. My pills are harder to put down. I can no longer eat lunch meat of any kind. No bread, no ground meat-----it won't go down. That makes me so happy! Unfortunately I no longer am working. My job was a temporary job. That kept me so busy & kept my mind off of wanting to eat. I am so extremely happy i had this surgery done. Why did it take me so long to do it? I'm actually starting to love myself again!
