I have had lapband surgery and am stuck at just a few pounds of weightloss?

Question

I recently visited my doctor and he said it isn't working for me. Has anyone been at this point and gotten back on track and achieved weightloss? How did you do it?

Answer 1

That's strange, as it usually produces profound rapid weight loss.

You may need to check and see if the band is properly positioned and adjusted. The amount of food you consume should be drastically reduced, and if it isn't, it could mean the band has either slipped, or isn't restricting your stomach properly.

Might be worth going through your hormones as well to see if there's anything interfering - it's rare but it can happen.
