in Introduce Yourself
I had a lap-band for 6 years and did nothing but vomit. In July I had it removed and consequently gained every one of my pounds back. I am ready to do things the right way now but have to scale back on the exercise because my body is not happy with me. It hurts all the time. I hope I can get the encouragement I need to keep me motivated and get this weight off so I can feel good again.

    Welcome. I just joined this week, too. I had gastric bypass nearly nine years ago and have regained. I was doing well for a long time but needed to make a positive change to get this regain off. I know a lot of people who had lap-band who have had to have it removed. (others have had positive experiences.) We can all help each other. Good luck.
