OreinaO 2 Posted August 27, 2017 Hey, I did SO well for the first 4 ish years but I have gained almost all my weight back. I am just here seeing if any of you are still working with your band. I see a lot of people getting revisions to the sleeve and bypass but has anyone had luck getting a secondary or even dare I say, longterm weight loss with the band? Hope to hear from y'all soon!

JTHmom 32 Posted August 27, 2017 I did well for 10 years but just had band removed 6 weeks ago trying to decide what to do next surgery with sleeve or try it on my own Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have considered it. And also considered trying to fill it again. I can't decide what I am doing! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JTHmom 32 Posted August 27, 2017 This last year i ended up with acid reflux and meds were not controlling it . I ended up w ulcers in my stomach and throat from the reflux so we emptied my band and still had reflux so the only thing to do was remove it . I dont qualify for another WLS as my BMI is to low so im going to Mexico for the sleeve in November . I know i need a tool or i will gain all my weight back and i worked to hard to get it off Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
