post pregnancy lap bander

My Baby is 18 months old. Have been trying to get to my sweet spot for over a year. Feel defeated. Anyone been there after pregnancy? Can I still get there??? Need encouragement. Banded since 2009.

Hormones make a huge deal in getting back, well for me at least. It was probably 6 months after I stopped breast feeding. Keep in mind that our stomachs are muscles that react to hormones, stress, etc...Do a 5 day pouch test and see where you are after that, I know it put it in perspective for me. I am 18 months out (had two babies back to back) from my latest baby and I still struggle to get the last 15 lbs off! Been banded since October 2007, good luck!
