Hey, everyone - I'm asking myself why I've taken so long to find a support site like this. My story...I had a LAP Band placed in August of 2004. I had no complications and about a 40 lb weight loss over the next 6 months. My biggest obstacle was that once I went back to "solid" foods, I vomited nearly every meal. So, in May of 05 I had the restriction withdrawn almost all the way - Now, 4 years later, I am ready to go back to restriction, but I am looking for support and INFORMATION from others who have gone through a similar problem. My doctor did some education, but without any slippage problems I am baffled as to why I had such trouble. I've now not only gained all of the weight back but added an additional 11 lbs.
I'm interested in hearing from you - I am a 51 year old woman who is diabetic and I'm determined to get my health back.
