Hi - right there with you!!! I had to have band re-done after my band prolapsed in Sept 2011 -I had lost down to about 163/size 10/12 and was very happy w/ that! I guess after the surgery I thought - oh it's just a little bit of extra food/for a little bit of time. Tons of stress/depression like you said - relationship of 8+ years ended, adult child in re-hab, raising 2 grandkids and here we are now - at 227! Finally w/this weeks fill I feel some restriction which is such a blessing! But like you said... the hardest part of all is.. the head hungry! It is terrible - I realize that especially at work - which is also a high stress job - I have been eating almost non-stop from noon until the end of the day - my new addiction - granola/trail mix - which in itself isn't bad unless you eat the entire bag!
So while I am glad to know that I am not the only one fighting "Head Hunger" I am sorry that you are here with me. So here we go let's beat this!!!
Take care Leslie
