looking for a penpal who has had lapband surgery

I had lap band surgery February 16,2011 and have been disappointed in the amount of weight I have Lost (around 35lbs)  I wi**** was more.  Would like to talk to someone who has had the lap band and hear about your experience with it.  THanks!!!

 Hi I have had the lap band since 09 and have not lost any weight.  I have gained though.  I am in a complete  crappy mood about this.  I see how others are doing and I get so upset.  I am trying my hardest to bet Bandie to work with me.  I exercise by power walking, and ZUMBA.   I drink lots of water and have began logging everything I eat.  Recently I have been making great choices.  Last month I went for a fill and was too tight so 2 weeks later I had to get that fill taken out.  I get stuck on certain foods and did not go thru this all not to have this work.  I am so determined to make this work and maybe we can be a support system for each other that will make life with a lap band a little bit easier.  All my support comes from OH

I am so depressed the last couple of months I've gained 6 lbs, I hate this lap band, I wish I would have gotten the gastric bypass.  I walk everyday for 30-45 minutes and try to stick with the diet, but I just can't seem to loose any weight, it is so discouraging,  I've got 8 ccs in a 10 cc band and sometimes wonder if another fill would help, but sometimes I have stuck episodes and throw up, so I don't know what to do????  How many ccs do you have in your band???  Please feel free to ask me any questions,,, thanks
