Hi! I am new to this site and have already fallen love with it. I was banded March 28, 2007. I have lost 100lbs. I have been very excited with the results and the new found energy I have for life. I hit a rough spot the past 2 months by loosing and gaining the same 3-4 pounds. This week I lost 6 lbs, so I hope I am getting back on track. I do not have an appointment with my Dr. until Feb. but I am thinking I may try to move it up. I really think I need a fill. I have only had to have 2 thus far.

:lol: I love my band and would do it all over again. I really wish I would have done years ago.

Welcome Christie!

Congratulations on your success, 100 lbs in less than a year is awesome!!!! I hope I can be that successful by my 1 year mark. You're very fortunate to have only needed 2 fills in almost a year. I've already had 4, but my doctor is not quite as aggressive with his fills as some of the others. You probably do need a fill. Don't get discouraged, be proud of what you have accomplished and just hang in there until you get a fill. Good luck to 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.
