Banded 4/16/03 lost down to 10lbs from goal by July 05.

Went threw a lot of Stress during the end of '05.

Went in on 1/5/06 to get a fill after gaining 40lbs in no time. How I gained ate everything in site, quit weighing on scale, and ignored my clothes getting tighter and tighter. Plus I was taking Cymbalta:mad: !!

On 1/5/06 the doc has changed his procedure and does all fills under fluro (which is a good thing). During the fill we found a leak in the tubing. Both the doc and I think it was from the tubing rubbing against the bottom left rib.

This surely explains me being able to eat everything in site.

On 1/13/06- surgery to repair tubing leak. During surgery doc adds 1cc to my band, and replaces my large port with the little one.

Even with 1cc no restriction. So I called they coulldn't get me in till 3/9/06 a month away. So I stressed big time over the possibilty of another leak.

On 3/9/06- Well no leak. Thank God!! But my pouch is stretched. GRRR!! Cross one bridge come to another. Also not so sure about this port. It was really painful when they stuck me this time. Never felt pain during a fill. When they pulled the needle out and covered with a bandaid it bled so bad it got on my shirt. Maybe she just hit something.

On 3/16/06- So here I am ready to face the fat and start over. I have put it off and put it off, but no more. I will lose this again.

My restart weight: 190lbs legs 28", arms 14.5" and belly 40". Man that is hard to look at!!:sick
