I had surgery almost one year ago exactly.  I knew I was getting out of control with my weight and I knew something had to be done.  One of the hardest challenges for me is remembering to chew enough times so I don't get sick.  I almost never miss any of the bad food that I used eat.  My last adjustment was about february and in march I had to take out the amount that I put in because the stomach muscles were inflamed.  So from time to time it still gets like that .  I'm deciding right now to loosen it another point 3 cc's.  I am really struggling with the decision because within the last month and a half eating has been really hard for me.  I gained about six to eight pounds.  So right now I'm about 243lbs.  I joined this forum to see if any fellow bandsters have any insight as to what I should do.  Should I loosen it a little more or try to lose more weight around the band to be comfortable again.
