That's right, I forgot about that part.  Hope something works out for you.  Sorry I can't be of more help.  I'm sure you've discussed gaining weight and they will probably say you did it on purpose.

Shell,
I have no words of wisdom, just hang in there.

Got a lap band in 2008. Tried hard, but didn't lose much weight & developed swallowing problems. Fought my insurance company for almost a year & finally had a band to DS revision on 5/11/12. Have now lost 125 pounds. Yay!
