I am seeing all these people say the band does not work? I have lost 30 pounds had surgery on the 24th of Aug. Will i gain it back?

Not as long as you keep following the process!

With the exception of one or two, the only people I see complaining (or freaking out) are those who have recently been banded. Most are still in the healing post-op phase.

Did not gain all your weight in 30 days, can't expect miracles right away.

All weight loss at that time is from the pre-op and post-op diet regime. Sooner or later you will be on regular food. Then you have to learn to live and use the band.

It took me 3-4 months before things started to fall in place. Six months till everything started to work the way I had hoped it would.

And I am still learning things all the time.

If you stick to the rues, you should have NO problem at all.

It's true! If you maintain a healthy lifestyle and do what you're supposed to do, and listen to your body, you'll not gain back a pound!

This was pretty much my deal too. I didn't start really learning how to work the band until about four months into it.

When I was first banded I weighed 356...

The other day I went to my Dr. , and was weighed. I weigh 246 now, and still losing....

So yes,,,, It does really work, as long as you do your job with the tool Your Band.
