    Stress Stress Stress

    Thanks Guys. I know it is sooo mental, the things that I am doing. I go from waking up ready to start the day off right and as soon as a hot button issue hits (ie, bills are late, kids are fighting) I start thinking "f it!". @@Jack, the caloric drinks were mainly alcoholic beverages and coffee drinks that I know better than to be drinking. This Sunday I started on my journey again. Started doing the Couch to 5k thing (thats what I did before and really enjoyed it). I am thinking about doing the pouch test also before getting my band filled. I know I can do it again!! Thank you guys!!!
  3. Hi, my name is Becky. This is my 1st message on a forum ever. I am stressed out and need some guidance. Here is my story.. I am 29 years old. Was banded 3 year ago very successfully (lost almost 100lbs and was running and everything). The top priority for the banding was because I wanted to get pregnant and couldn't due to my polycystic ovary syndrome. So 1 year after banding and 98lbs down, I was expecting my baby girl. Thats when things turned. They emptied my band and I gained back 40 lbs during that 9 months. In the mean time, I was in nursing school. Stress out the wazoo. (I just graduated in May with my RN). Because of school, raising my family and working full time, I fell off the wagon. I did get 5ML's put back in my band, but have been eating around it, stress eating, and drinking high caloric drinks. I am now only down 27lbs from my original weight and SOOO mad at myself. I just dont know what to do next. Do I try to get filled again (is 5ML's enough?), do I see the nutritionist, or do I just start over. what do i do?? When I'm eating I do feel full, but the fat person in me decides to drink with my meals and push through it until I clean my plate. Has anyone started over successfully?? Just looking for advice..

    Any June Bandsters???

    hey all! well today is my surgery day. i have to be down at the cleveland clinic (in cleveland, ohio obviously) at 9am. im sooo nervous. its not even really about the band its more about the anesthesia. i think i watch to many medical shows and am just worried im not going to make it. other then being obese i have no other medical problems and im only 25 years old so the doc thinks ill do great, but i also have a husband and a 3 year old son that i cant imagine not being here for so im scared. my preop stuff was different then what ive read on here. i had a 2 week liq diet then the last 2 days no protein drinks, only sf jello (no reds), broth, water, decaf tea and thats it. and i had to do a bowel prep which sucked big time. but i am cleaned out and thirsty since i cant have anything to drink since midnight. well i have to get going. keep all of us june 15th-ers in your prayers today! the next time im on here ILL BE BANDED!!!!
