Last Chance To Work My Band

Can any one give me some advise, I had a 9cc Band fitted with the hospital group 7 years ago and lost 14 stone over 18 months i kept having fills to often to loose more weight, but this made me ill as i could,t keep anything down. i was living on soft foods & liquids, i couldn't learn myself how to eat solids. I ended up in hospital as the band was too tight so they removed 2cc. i was still the same but due to bringing everything back what i drank and got down caused damage to my esophagus so was advised to have my band deflated after 2 years of struggling and suffering. slowly my weight as gained and i feel like im back to were i started, as i have let my band rest for 18 month so has u can guess i have eaten everything i should't of eaten, like a child would in a sweet shop. I have finally had a refill last week of 4cc but now feel like im at the beginning and need to learn how to work with my band, as i felt last time round i didnt learn how to work it properly and more or less starved myself as the weight was falling off way to quickly. i now feel like im a failure to people who ask me about having a band fitted, as looking at me now im nearly back to the weight when i 1st had the band fitted.And my size now stops me seeing my family & friends has they all knew i had my band fitted,and now i feel like this is the only way to lose this weight, why have a band just to sit inside me and not working,that's what the N.H.S wanted me to do, I've done it there way. And now i'm doing it my way my last chance to work my band. So now iv just finished 3 days of liquid and onto soft food, i dont feel like iv any restriction but im thankfull im keeping what i do eat down. i need advise on what i can and can't eat and what kind of feelings should i be feeling when eating. is it right i cant have a drink till 1 hour after a meal?
