Hi.....I am new to this forum.

I had lap band on June 1, 2005. I have gained back all of my weight. I am going to a NEW doctor tomorrow to have Fluid put back in my band and to get a new start. I had all of my fluid removed back in October due to problems with "Esophagitis". Has anyone had this problem. I went to the doctor for a follow up and had gained a few pounds. He chewed me out and he didn't want to put any fluid in my band. He finally put a "little" bit in. Not enough that I could tell. I never went back to him. It is now the middle of June and I have gained all of my weight back. I started Aqua Aerobics today too. This is a new beginning for me! I am looking for encouragment and a place to "relate" to others! I hope I have found the right website!!!

Good luck to all of you!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
