Hey all you wonderful beautiful bandsters. How are you?

I'm a long time resident but I've been AWOL for far too long. Apologies to my band friends! I actually came over to pay my respects to Kate but thought I'd touch base.

This seems to be Kate's final life lesson. Never take your time here for granted.

So what is up with me? I once upon a time hit Onederland for like 2 days in 2010-i**** was a short lived celebration hahaha!   I had a kiddo in 2012. I kept my fluid in my band the entire pregnancy. I only gained like 13lbs when all was said and done. Which was fine since I was still obese in the MD's eyes .

But fast foward to 2014 and things went really awry. I had emergency gall bladder surgery. They found many stones and lots of gravel. They had to put scopes, suction tubes, instruments and what not down my throat for the surgery. As a result of my restriction, they had to remove all my fluid. BOO!  Now here I am creeping back toward restriction. Still not where I need to be or even where I was in terms of CC's or restriction. I'm currently at my highest weight EVER and feel as if I have no control over my life any longer. My medical team has made their suggestions and I'm mulling it all over. I guess one of these days I'll make it back to give another update on that piece.  Until then, I've found some acceptance of my size in my world. I've got love in my heart and happiness on my face. Isn't that enough?
