Debbajoy 0 Posted September 9, 2008 Hi! My name is Debbie and I'm new to LapBandTalk but I'm not new to the Lapband. I've had my band now for almost 2 years (Oct 2006) and lost 70 lbs. In the last year I've had to have my gallbladder removed (my band had to be completely emptied) and then terrible acid reflux (again, my band had to be emptied). I'm slowly starting to come around and my Dr. is slowing adding Fluid back in but not before I gained back 7 pounds!! It's very depressing, but I'm fighting hard to stay on top of it. Reading the discussion boards help me tremendously and I'd be happy to help those just starting on their journey. I love my band!! The only regret I have is not doing it sooner!!
