Rapid weight gain after a band defill

Posted , 3 users are following.

I have had my band defilled from 5ml to 2.5ml. I have no restrictions and to be honest it's been great being able to eat. My band was to tight but I didn't realise and my weight was stuck. Not really losing considering I couldn't eat to much but I got so fed up and paid to have some fluid out. My problems with reflux and night coughs and throwing up after food has stopped but God the weight has flown on so fast. I'm not eating like a pig but I just think my metabolism is up the wall. Thinking of getting a fill again. Has anyone had a similar problem?

    I do not think a band is necessary, i think its important to be determined, losing weight takes focus and dedication.
