  3. Hi all - I had band surgery 1 year and 6 months ago. I did fabulously during my first year. I lost 62 pounds in total. I began to have some issues with my band, including severe nausea. They emptied my band completely and in the process, I changed jobs. My new insurance does not cover doctors visits, so I have not gone back yet to get it filled ($250.00 a visit). I've gained back 20 pounds in the past 6-8 months. I haven't been eating correctly, not exercising, and had gone back to drinking 2 20 oz bottles of pepsi a day. In a commitment to change, I've stopped drinking soda (been 8 days now!) and am joining Curves. I'm just wondering if anyone has tips for eating and getting back on the wagon. I still have 60 pounds left to lose and feel stalled. I haven't found a lot of support around here because all of my cohorts went with the option of gastic bypass and have lost all of their weight. Thanks for letting me ramble!
