    Lost, worried, disgusted....

    B-52, I've had problems in the past with the band being too tight, so I'd rather go slow with the fills. Like I said, if I don't drink I fill up VERY quickly... the problem is I'll keep drinking until it forces the food to go down. I cheat, I admit it. I'd rather be a little loose but still restricted then too tight and freak out because Water is hard to get down.

    Thank you so much for the support and kind words. I'm actually pretty tight, my problem has been drinking while eating.. I'm ALWAYS so thirsty. I know I just have to STOP. There's no other answer. The last time I saw him I did get a fill... I feel tight, and it's not like I can get down a WICKED LOT even with the drinking... Time to stop being a lil b*tch about it and just drop the Water with food. LOL... Changing bad habits is hard work!~

    I won't lie... when I first got my lap band, like most people I was so excited to start my new life. I've lost and kept off 30 pounds... the problem is... I had the band 3 years ago. I never stopped drinking while eating and I KNOW not losing weight is MY OWN FAULT and NOT the bands. ​My problem is I'm so worried that I've done irrevocable damage. I last saw my surgeon a few months ago and all looked good on the baritric swallow.. I guess my worries are unwarranted but I've been eating like I would have before the band for so long I'm worried I can't start over.. Has anyone stopped and started again with good results? I've started working out this week and making better eating choices, but I still find myself in my old habits. I'm soooo hoping someone else has had this problem and can help me get back on track. PLEASE respond!
