  1. Hi everyone!! Well here is my story the good the bad and the ugly. I was banded in June of 2009. The first 6 months I lost around 50-60 lbs and I have struggled there ever since. Here I thought I knew what restrictions was. Well I really had no clue. So finally this fall I learned what the real restriction was. I thought it was too tight so after a month I went back in had it loosened. Well then I had no restriction. Just last week I got back to the dr and now it’s tight again and I am down 4lbs. What’s hardest for me is social situations. Hard to know what will go down and what will not. Also I have made a bad habit of going out and drinking. I have started working out again also.. So I am trying to change all these things! What I would love is anyone to give me advice and support.
