Default Lab-band

So how did the lab band work for you? I have a friend that had the Lab band this summer and has lost a sh*t ton of weight! When she found out that I was looking into (at the time) having gbp she was shocked and was not a supporter at all of the gbp. So what happed with the lap band, I'd love to hear your story, if you dont mind sharing it.

In the beginning, I lost 18 pounds with the band. I did everything I needed to for months and began to loose nothing at all. I had 6 fills ($150 each) and stil lost nothing. After all that I began to just get frustrated. I started eating normally and eventually I could eat ALOT of food at each meal. I started to gain weight, and I could feel the band at night or if I moved a certain way. It was very uncomfortable. So I saw my surgeon and he said to remove it and have the GB instead. So I did! If you have any ?'s, just ask!
