This is my story
I have recently had a gastric band fitted after years of dieting: successfully lost 6½ with slimming club and ran slimming clubs in my area but put it all back on over the years. Successfully lost 5 stones for my daughter's wedding 3 years ago and put all of it back on again within 2 years. Finally thought enough is enough and made the decision to have a gastric band fitted on 28th April 2008 however, the weight is not coming off very quickly and now wonder if I have done the right thing. My understanding was that dieting was a "NO" word and that you could eat basically what you wanted in moderation!! Would a gastric bypass have been a better option. I hope I haven't wasted my money - I have to work too hard to earn it....
