I was banded at Stanford University Medical Center on 3/19/07. I was severely depressed for about a week after. I was on liquids for several weeks and hungry. I lost 28 pounds. I know I have gained from that amount now. I have had one adjustment, but it didn't seem to make a lot of difference. I am having trouble in the evenings (and some serious family issues, which are not helping), but today, I am determined to start over--no more sugar-lots more protein. Does anyone have any advice?:help:
