  1. HI, I am a new-b here to this site. I really came looking for some support. I was Banded 12-19-07 I lost a total of 80 lbs. I was doing well ,but then I was greedy and had to have another fill. After that fill I was too too tight, I dealt with all of the slime and pbing for 4 months. During those 4 months I didn't lose 1 single pound. I was finally admitted for dehydration for 2 days. At that point my Doc took ALL of my fluid out!!! By the way, my bariatric program was also closing the same month, so I was devistated. I had to find a new Doc and my band (Hope) was empty...This ironicaly was my bandiversary 12-19-08..I was so depressed, I ate everything in eyes view, I mean everything.. I found a new Doc about 30 miles away but couldn't get a fill for 2 months. I gained 20 lbs. My new Doc has been filling me slowly and I have still been gaining. I am no longer in Onederland. I am over 200 again and feel like I have lost the battle. Today I had another fill and I think I am too tight now. It may be because it was today, but I really think that this may do the trick. I am hoping to find some support here on this site. Any encouragement will be greatly appreciated. I am hopefuly on the right path as long I can stay away from the bad foods..I now have totally gained 34 lbs. I need help...
  2. So, my surgery was 12-19-07. I lost 80lbs and then I got sick & doc took all my fluid out in 12/08. Since then I gained 35lbs.:crying: OMG I have been getting small fills and today I think It has work, maybe too much. I can't take a big gulp of water without it coming back up:drool:. maybe because it's the first day. aNY INTAKE ON THIS.???:rolleyes2:
