Hi there, I lost 82 lbs. as of last year, but have since gained back 24. Please tell me what steps you took to get back on "the band wagon." I am excersicing, but could use some other support. What kind of food do you eat during the day. Thanks.

...I am excercising 3-4 days a week. Also, regarding my band, it's tight in the AM, but by PM I feel little to no restriction. That's why I'm considering one more small fill. But, perhaps that's not necessary if that's not the problem. Since I've had no one to communicate w/all these months, I'd love to know what kind of meal plans you're all using.

:confused_smile: - Hi all, I'm new to this site and am reaching out for support...I was banded in Aug. 2006 and lost 82 lbs my first year. However, to date, I've gained about 25 lbs. There has been quite a bit of stress in my life this last year. And, I've utilized it towards my disadvantage. I had my port replaced in January, due to a leak in the tube. However, it is now somewhat tight, though I'm considering getting one more fill soon. The good news is that I've maintained the same weight since that port replacement (losing and gaining back eight lbs.) I desparately want to get it back together and finally reach for my goal (which is about 40-50 lbs away). Please, I would be grateful for any support that I could receive to help get me back on track. Tell me what you're doing when you go through these, how are you eating, how are you handling stress. Have any of you been able to overcome this kind of relapse? Thanks for reading.
