I am so happy to know that you are doing so much better since the fluid was removed from your band. You have done such an amazing job with your weight lost, and I do understand your concerns about gaining the weight back. Hopefully, your good food choices and food behaviors will help to maintain your weight during this transition. I had acid reflux for over 7years, and I don't know how in the world I learned to deal with it so long. I was banded on July 21, 2010 and my hernia was repaired at that same time. I felt like my life was given back to me once the hernia was repaired. Now when I hear of others going through the same things I did for years, my heart goes out to them. JSC, you are a very strong person and you will accomplish your final weight lost goal. It may take you a little longer to do it, but God will give you the strength and willpower to achieve your goals. I am praying for you!
