poeticallyiam 1 Posted May 10, 2016 My name is kim and I've had lapband since June 3rd 2011. In my first year I lost 75lbs. 2nd year, I had complications. The lapband became too small, I had the size 10 cc band. With it completely empty I couldn't swallow. My old surgeon kept saying the band was fine, I needed to change my eating habits. I knew I was doing all I could, so I seen another dr, my current dr. He said the band was too small, so I had a size 14cc Band placed December 8th 2013. To be honest, it's been amazing to just enjoy food and life. TWO years later, I'm ready to get back on track. I've gained 30 lbs back and I need to lose 60lb all together. I'm here for support and motivation! So, HELLO! Sent from my SM-G920T using the BariatricPal App Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

m.simpson88 56 Posted May 13, 2016 I was banded 7/23/13 and got down to 172 last year back up to 188 as of this morning. I saw 190 yesterday morning and decided the only way to lose the weight and get to my goal is to put in the work. I can't blame my band because it's my hand that puts the food in my mouth. Journaling all food with my fitness pal. I am doing this for me. I would live to share this back on track journey with others in the same boat as me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
