My name is Holly Boyd. I had lapband surgery on 1/25/11. It slipped in July 2016. I finally found a doctor that wanted to listen to what was going on. I had an up GI on 2/8/17 along with the initial consultation with the new doctor. I moved to Denver Colorado in 2014.

My lapband surgery was preform in Alabama. By an awesome doctor. I was very successful I lost 96 pounds. I was 25 pounds from goal weight. So, I am hoping to see my goal weight.

Welcome! You will find many bandsters in this situation. I recently had revision surgery. Today is my 1 month surgiversary. You can read up on my blogs. There is a group devoted to lap-band revision. It's not an easy decision, but you will have to decide how to continue with your weight lost.

Wishing you all the best on this journey!

Thanks, i just learned that my band has not slipped according the upper GI.. then why in the world do i have heart burn several times a week.. no restriction what so ever.. I was able to eat a sandwich something I haven't been able to do since 2010.... i couldn't do pasta or bread or even rice.. i can do everything and then some.. i go for the endoscopy on 21st.
