Gained Weight after the Lap Band

[gabriellePhD 0]

Hey guys,

Any advice for someone who was banded a few years ago and have gained weight. I never reached my goal and I know I need to go in for a fill. I feel like I did not follow the plan completely and now I would like to start over. I plan on making an appointment next week and try to get filled as tight as possible and start back on my Protein. I feel terrible for gaining 20 pounds even though I lost almost 60 pounds after my surgery. What are your thoughts?

Put on your big girl/boy pants and just do it....if you gained, accept it and go on..

you will LOSE again..

I have a friend that is trying to lose the weight that she gained BEFORE she goes back to the dr..

(she was 'unfilled' a year ago due to an erosion.)

if you can do that..you don't need the band..lol

Start on a focused plan..

YOU can do this..

YOU are worth it!

I agree with you. Even though I am ashamed to return to the doctor with weight gain but I really need a fill so that is the route I plan to take in order to get back on the right track. The tighter the better. Thanks.
