Anyone fail with lapband and RNY?

Good Luck Brandy....As I said, I did very well with my RNY....16 years I kept the weight off. I was my own worst enemy by grazing all day long. Just make sure that when you eat a meal, and I can't stress this enough. eat till your full then, get up and leave the table and throw the rest away! don't save it, don't sit and eat little bites until you've ate it all throughout the day. You may not be able to eat a large meal but grazing all day long you will eventually stretch your pouch and stoma to a point where you can accomodate a whole lot of calories.

I'm sure with your committment you will do great, and I guarantee you will lose weight!!! no doubt...

The rest is up to you.

Thanks for the great advice, I will definately take that to heart as I know exactly what you're talking about.  When I was first lapbanded I assumed I could only eat small portions (physically that is) so I used very small plates or bowls and that seemed to help so I'll do the same thing when I get my RNY, thanks again, brandyII.
