Ok, so It's been several months since I've visited my page or been compliant with my lap-band. I've been so off track since December. I had lost 83 pounds in 8 months and since December I've gained 27 pounds back! I've been pigging out on slidder foods or "eating around the band" as my surgeon calls it. I haven't even been to see my surgeon since October because I'm embarrassed about my weight gain. I feel like a complete looser and physically feel worse than when I weighed 323 pounds. I'm not sure how to start over or get serious again but I'm definitely going to try. I need to place my focus back on me. I have a treadmill, elipictal, free weights and an exercise bike in the guest room collecting dust! I'm making a public and personal committment right now to get back to being on track. If anyone has experienced anyone like this or has any suggestions on assisting me in my struggle please don't hesitate to comment or e-mail me.

i am starting over to- i am in the same struggle as you, mine started over a year ago when i found out i was pregant.i needed to see the dr and get a swiff kick in the butt to get my self back on track, i needed a small fill and now 3 days back i know i want this again, i gained back all that i lost right after i had the band. i feel that i have hit bottom and i am ready to climb out of this. I will get there and so will you. good luck!!!!!
