I'm not in Colorado, but I've had a band over RNY.

did u and how are u doing with ur band?  how much weight have u lost ?  thank u

All good things probably come to an end.  Both surguries no longer benefit me.  My Highest was 430.  Got down to 255 with RNY.  Started gaining all the way up to 310.   Had revision of Band, then got down to 186.  Now I'm at 230 and have to fight for every damm pound lost.  The esopogus has stretched on top of the band and has become it's own pouch.  Surgeon says I cannot sustain this condition, but offers me no solutions.  As of now I can eat any quantity I desire becase of the stretching.  Never could get the mental part of the program to work for me.  That's it in a nutshell.  So it's not the best for me.  I know others have had more success.

im sorry about  i hope u everything works out for u in ur journey
