Please help! I was banded Dec 24th 2009, and I did great the first 2mo, and have kept it all off however now that its over 6mo ago, the 20lbs I have lost seems petty! I have had some big things go on in my life since March, and seems to be carrying on (my father was diagnosed with MS). Every time I seem to be getting on track something seems to happen with him, and then I just give up again. Also I don't feel that I feel full, or if I'm ignoring the feeling. Twice in the past week I pick up the phone to call my surgeons office to make an appt, but then get worried as to what he will think and say, but if the band has slipped or a fill would be good I would like to get that taken care of. I was so excited going into this and told a bunch of people that now I'm embarrassed to see because I have only lost 20lbs, I feel like I'm a lost cause now. Please help me, I guess I'm really looking for some encouragement and whether to see my Dr or not.
