Here is my story and I'm sticking to it..
I had lap band surgery about 5 years ago, it worked wonders. I lost about 120 lbs. Then in 2008 I decided I wanted a baby....soooooo I had my beautiful little girl in November of 2009. During my pregnancy my band was loosened and boy did I put on the weight. My doctor said my body thought is was starving, so it stored and stored and stored. I gained a little more than 65 lbs. All was well and fine. I figured when I had my little girl I would get my fills and be on my way....I WAS WRONG.... My band decided it was not going to work any more. I recieved my fills, did everything I needed to and nothing but heartburn. My doctor couldnt figure it out. His reponse was, "maybe it was because how your intestines shift during pregnancy." ????????So here I am sitting at 226 lbs moving on to a RNY. Hopefully this this be the end of it.
I am really looking forward to fitting back into my old jean, and playing endlessly with my little princess without being out of breath.
