Okay.. not to sound mean but Im going to be blunt because I have done the same thing too BUT... When I realized it I stopped it. I have been given a tool and I need to use it. I pray to God that I never gain my weight back but it is up to me. I know I have to get a certain amount of exercise and I have to watch what I eat. I wish you the best of luck. Maybe you need to do something positive for yourself for a change. Buy yourself a new outfit and realize how far you are coming.
How am I feeling,1st surguery was lab band and was sore but not enough for pain meds and was normal by day 13,2nd surgery date was 10-23-08 becuase I was not losing weight and felt as if I was never banded..Found out my port was flipped and tubing twisted,This surgery was a piece of cake,never have had a pain or sore,But I was filled with 4cc and now I actually feel banded for the first time,And that feels great!

What else? The first week I was thinking that I made a mistake about the surgery, then I started to feel better. By the 3rd week I was experiencing a lot of discomfort and was having regrets again. Now I am glad I did it. My B. pressure is much improved, I am sleeping better (less snoring) and the joint pain is better. Looking forward to completing this part of the journey and meeting my goal weight by this time next year.
Perhaps I am wrong, but it seems like a lot of us got in this situation because we are emotional eaters. I was also told I should see someone about my emotional eat...but luckily for me it did not slow down the process.
Good luck!
