Hi all, I'm in need of a mentor. I had this surgery a little over 2 years ago. I did really well lost close to 70 pounds. I got an upper respitory infection, was coughing so bad that it irritated and swelled the area around the band and the doctor opened up the band, not sure if it was opened all the way or partially, I gained 20 pounds. Went back for a fill, it was a very slight fill. Since then I have not been able to loose that 20 pounds. I have barretts Eshphaghus and it was also getting irritated and could not keep food down. I don't know if I am not eating properly or what. But I want to get back to loosing weight and eating properly. But I find It very very hard to get back into the swing of things. I need help and support to get back on track... I know with a little help I can do it....
