MIA for a couple of years

Just wanted to pop in and say hello!  Had RNy 01/05 with complications and a gastrogastric fistula.  I initially lost down to 159, from a high of 323 (297 on day of surgery), but now with two broken legs and the shingles this year, find myself over 200 again - DRATS!  I need to get back on track... Seems that the fistula opening has increased in size and so now I can fill part of the "big" stomach with overflow from my pouch - DRATS again.  But the tool isn't completely broken, and I really don't want more surgery, which is the only way they can fix the fistula.  Anyway, I've given myself a goal of 6 months to knock some of the regain off the scale before I seriously entertain more surgery.  Tell me what the 5dpt is?  I am on an overeating rollercoaster ride that I really want to get off of. Thanks for reading this far, and I feel like I'm back home where I need to be.
