Well, I learned a lot from this. If a person is a stress/binge eater before banding, odds are they will replace the food with another binge. Shopping. Sex. Internet. Part of my "back on track plan" is seeing a counselor that specializes in eating disorders.
I was banded in Sept. of 2006. I did very well (lost 50 lbs very quickly) and then got terribly off track. I'm interested in hearing others' stories about what happened, how they dealt with it, and where they are now.
I just had my first fill in 10 months, still feel like I can eat too much, but I'm better than I was.
