Sweety Pie

I had this surgery over 1 year ago.  This was an outpatient surgery. I have never had my band tightened because I had a very frightening episode of vomiting about 6 months after the surgery.  The swelling subsided and since then I have never had an adjustment.  Right now I need to get on track.  I have been eating all of the wrong things again, and am drinking high calorie drinks.  I have never attended a support group because they are located at least 1 hour away.  I drive over an hour to and from my job and I can not do all this driving. I have fibromylagia and am often in pain after long drives. I presently am under much stress with working full-time and starting school again.  I do not want to fail at gettng healthy.  I have lost some weight and I do not want to gain it back.  I feel sad that I hear all of the commericals and read the bill board signs on the highway when I am driving about how people have lost over 100 pounds which is what I need to do.  I have asked for support groups closer to my house at least 3 times over the past year and no information.  I have also tried to find on-line support and tonight I found this site.  This is a good time for me to help myself to get back on track.  I know my band is working I can only eat just so much at a meal.  I am thankful that I have this band.  I am not eating huge portions of food anymore so I know there is hope for me.
