    Post Lap Band after Gastric Bypass Surgery

    Losing weight is hard..many people choose Gastric bypass surgery for weight loss and succeeded, but in some we see that some patients lose weight in initial stage and regain it after a period of time.
    so my question is

    How much it is safe to have A Surgery After Gastric Bypass ? is there any specific time period to have a Band surgery after one..

    Is this something a gastric bypass patient can have done? I had my lap band removed to get sleeved. Band did not work for me and rumor has it surgeons are moving away from banding as results are not that great.

    I thought the bypass was the end stage surgery, not one where you could be banded afterward. Hopefully someone will come along and answer that for you.

    3 months: 9 lost (173-halfway to goal!)
    5 months: 7 lost (161-1week stall)
    7 months: 4 lost (152-4 week stall)
    9 months: 1 lost (145-1 month stall)
    10 months: 0 lost (145-2month stall

    I think that is a question you need to ask a professional such as your surgeon. There are some times where the opinions from those that are not fully knowledgeable to all the aspects, outcomes, and possibilities should not be taken into consideration. You know what they say about opinions…
