Hi everyone, July 2009 bandster here... Back on this site since about two years ago, and just wanted to let you all know about my journey. I'm posting this same message in other sites to have more readers. It's been three years since my surgery. In summary, I've lost over 140 pounds in two years, but the past year, I've gained at least one pound a month and it appears there is no stopping soon. Last year, I weighed about 103-108. Ive gained 10 pounds this past year and am predictably gaining about one pound a month. Every single month. It all started last fall when I started to overeat, mostly Desserts. The overeating has become usual now, especially at night. My mind tells me stop! I think about this horror almost all day long, but I just -don't stop. I see my body growing every moment of every day and I fear getting out of bed to start the process over again. I had lost too much, so when I started to regain most all said, good, you needed to gain. But they don't hear me when I say I am gaining-gaining and im not stopping until I gain all my weight back! I feel like the desperate lost fat girl of 2009; a person with no chance of peace of mind or a future worthwhile. What is my next move?

I've had the band for almost two years and never really had anything that got stuck, BUT oh! something is not quite right! I ate some barbecue beef last night and I guess over did it. I felt tight after eating and my port was hard and stinging a bit. The port and pressure was nothing new, everytime I eat any too much, that is what I feel. To top things off, I ate a dense muffin and Cookies on top of the bbq. I didn't sleep well, worried that my binging sweets late at night had become too often. This morning I got up and still felt the pressure on the port. I ate a few cherios and some milk and coffee, then later some whole wheat crackers. Now I feel really stuck, if that is what it is. I feel like food is all the way up my esophagus into the back of my throat! I just drank a half teaspoonof meat tenderizer. Help!! (It's been 20 hours since the bbq/muffin, and I wonder if having a stuck problem usually lasts this long.)
