I had my lapband surgery in 5/07 and was doing great until the end of 2008. I started waking at night coughing and throwing up bile. I had my solution removed, waited a bit and put back in a couple of times. It has now been over a year without any solution and YES, I have put weight back on. I wasn't ready to begin my lapband journey again until recently. Over the past year I had some issues with my mother, finances and lots of stress at work. I just went yesterday and got .5cc's put in my band. I'm going to have to go slow. I had lost 100lbs. and as of yesterday I'm still down 30lbs.
UPDATE AS OF 12/06/11 - Since my first fill after an unfill and weight gain, May 2010, I am now down 118 lbs. with 10 lbs. to reach my goal weight of 145. I decided on that weight because it would get me in the "normal" range of the BMI.
My surgeon, Elliott Fegelman is the best! I just love going to see him.
