The only road blocks I have encountered are that I got lazy with my eating. I would much rather eat carbs than protein, which is a major no no. I carbed my way into gaining almost 25 pounds from my lowest weight. None of my 6 clothes were fitting. I went back to basics and have lost 26 pounds in the last 8 weeks. Needless to say, I am smaller than before and my size 6's are fitting beautifully. Some are a little baggy.
So even if you stumble, the pouch will work if you work it.

That is good to hear. I cant loose with my band at all. It has been nothing but fill after unfill. I so want to get this weight off, my mom passed away at 47 of pancreatic cancer and my dad had a quad bypass at 47 so I am praying this will work for me. I am terrified of the comorbidities that accompany being overweight - hope that doesnt sound nuts lol. I know if I can get that BMI down that will drastically lower my percentages for both of my parents issues. So glad to hear you are doing so well, I see lots of people who stay nauseous all the time...Kinda scares me lol.
