Debating on getting an unfill. Could use some advice.

I can really only share my experience, but I didn't realize until I was unfilled just how long I had wasted being too tight. I hadn't lost anything in a year and like you I was eating a lot of comfort foods since so many were off limits. In fact I had regained 9lbs. Last week however I had my band completely unfilled due to a possible ulcer and I joined weigh****chers.

Can I just say this has been a wonderful week. I am cooking healthy foods again since I can eat everything, I am far more aware as to what I am eating, (and of course I have never been more motivated to exercise since I am terrified of gaining while unfilled). I lost 1.4lbs my first week and although its not huge, its the first weight I have lost in so long.

I still love my band, but the lessen learned is that when I start getting fills again I will never allow myself to be that tight again. It wasnt remotely beneficial and I was miserable. Good Luck!
