Lapband Removed

I had my lapband removed Sept. 2011, and had the gastric bypass done. I wish I had done the gastric bypass first.

I had my lap band removed because it did not work for me. I stayed hungry and throw up all the time. We I would lose a little weight, it would come right back. I could not eat in the morning, however by the afternoon I could eat a regular size meal.
