My condolences for your loss. Losing a family member is so emotional and can be very complicated. So you have a lot to deal with right now. I lot on your plate so to speak :cursing: Its not an excuse, its your real life.

Its easy to fall off track and you can get right back on. Try not to be hard on yourself. You sound determined. It sounds like you are making really good decisions for yourself and I know that you are going to make it through this tough time.

You can do this we are all here for you. Best wishes and you know we are all struggling and you are NOT alone on this one. A death is a tremendous loss. You need to grieve. This is one that you will need to deal with along with dealing with the LB. Now 99 pounds is amazing focus on your great HEALTH and follow the rules. Staying positive will help. I believe in you, you can do it. imaluckydog

I too have had a loss in my family and I was constantly throwing up when I ate, even liquid stuff. My doctor told me that the band will constrict when I am upset. He suggested that I take it easy on my self and not worry about getting my fill at that time. He refused to give me a fill at that time. I am at a stand still at this time but with the holidays and family stress, I am holding off on a fill due to I still have trouble with throwing up after eating. Going to enjoy the holidays with my family.
