    How much have you lost in that time? I think that when we feel poorly it is easy to be thinking that way, but in truth, it is great to lose alot that first year as it is so much harder later.
    Are you staying hydrated? I notice now post sleeve that I can get a little "
    blue" feeling and realize I am under hydrated or too low carbs or something.. and that i need fuel.
    I like the blood work suggestions because low vit b, low Iron etc can make you feel awful.
    If it really is emotional, lack of stress relief - although i think counseling does help, I find DOING is more helpful. Join a club, do volunteer work, take up hiking, join a gym, find friends to walk dogs with, I don't know... just becoming more outward facing and less food focused I think helps. Good luck!

    banditup reacted to manofsize in ANYONE ELSE GET PLICATION WITH LAP-BAND?   
    I had a plication with a lap-band on June 30th 2014. I find I can get a lot of food into my folded gut - and so the doctor put some saline in my band, which has helped on a bit (I got see him again this week and he'll put more in). I don't know anyone else in my world who's had this combo (plication with band) and am curious to know what that journey has been like...if anyone is willing to share their stories with me.
    Thanks so much!
