  1. 3 Years - Issues

    · DixiesMom · 08/16/2012 18:43

    This November will be 3 years since my lap band surgery. I am holding steady at 160 after loosing 100 pounds. It seems unbelievable to me that I had 100 pounds to loose. I have not had a fill in almost one year. The 3 years have gone by quickly with no problems or issues.
     
    Recently I have been having issues with a very tight band in the mornings. Its usually midmorning or noon before I can eat. Lunch is very light. By evening/dinner time I have starving. I experience reflux/heartburn day and night. Zantac has become my friend. I seem to be craving more carbs lately having more fatigue and chronic constipation. Im getting my protein in, not so much fruits and veggies. I look in the mirror and see an over weight person looking back. Just wondering if Im experiencing some sort of a depression, maybe going through a down period since the weight loss has slowed down. Anything similar out there?
     
    Thanks
