I rec'd the RNY in May 2006, I lost 240 pounds by the Plateau'd and started gaining. But this was expected. And thus we, as planned placed an Adjustable Gastric banding on in April 2009. Putting me back on track to losing. I've lost 100 pounds in these past 6 months. Taking me back downward to whee I had gotten with the Bypass. I'm at 450 I once was 740.

You'll find more people who have had or are considering having this done by going to the above menu, pulling down the "Forums" tab, and going to the Lap Band and Revision Weight Loss Surgery forums. You should also gain some insight there as to the pros and cons of taking this step. Good luck.

P.S.: in case you can't find the forums I wrote of, put the mouse over "Surgical Forums," and the list including the ones for Lap Band and Revision will pop up. Hope this helps.
