iam still happy i made the choice to band =)

:tongue_smilie:iam still happy i did the band even though i went through so much stuff in the last couple mos theres always bad with the good at times and iam sure there will be more but all and all iam pleased to have made this choice for sure ,iam staying positive and looking forward to losing some more when my fill is started again ....:thumbup:i was really scared my band had slid and i was gonna lose it for good if he didnt like what my test was but the way the guy talked who did my test seemed like i had to have time to heal with the saline out after being sick with the flu that i had been sick so long my stomach couldnt heal any .but we are back to normal again ...yeahhhhhhhh
