Hey everyone,

My name is Wazen, I had my lap Band surgery back in 2001

I lost 88lbs/40kg, but :smile: I gained back 60lbs/27kg and now I'm back to losing weight I lost 33lbs/15kg and I need all the support I can get through my journey of weight loss.

Hi..glad you are back on track If you don't mind, I have a few questions for you. How were you able to gain weight with a band? How are you now able to lose so much? Is it all about the fills. I was just banded today.

Hi 2911plans,

Congratulations on your surgery I hope u r feeling well :smile:

well I lost all that weight in a year I had all my fills and it is all about the fills and not introducing any bad food or drinks to your diet because one u introduce something it gets easier to fall off the wagon and I did everything the way it was suppose to be done except working out, which I recommend everyone to do from the very beginning do as much as u can because u lose so much weight in such a little time.

The way I was able to gain weight was because when I lost all that weight I started eating in a way which abused my band by drinking and eating at the same time and all I ate was fatty and high sugar food and I gained all that weight back very slowly (over 2 years)

Wow! I was not aware you could gain with the band. Thanks for informing me. Did you go back and get a fill to lose again or you decided to eat right again? It is never too late to get healthy. I wish you well.
