Another Desperate Soul..
Hi, I'm one of the many with the same old story...always fat, and always up and down.
I've been searching for over a month for more than a few stories about Lap Band success beyond one year from surgery.
Does it hold up years out? Which is the best board to connect with people? Is it a safe assumption that people don't check back after they have lost?
Thanks for your help and time.
:-)
Hi Melissa,
Seems like one time are another we all have worries about regaining the weight.
A friend of mine had the lap-band 22months ago and her starting weight was 233 and shes still holding at 170 to 178. I think she's doing good with the lap-band. I just wanted to let you know that the lap-band can and will hold up if you make it work for you.
Take Care and Happy Holidays

Hi Melissa,
There's a lapband board here - I'd ask your question there. As far as folks checking in... this board was really active the first year plus, but the last 6-9 months it has slowed down quit a bit. Don't know if that's the norm or not. Good luck on what ever direction you decide to go.
