Hi all, I was recently banded on 7/7/10 and have lost 45 pounds total. Now I am having issues with anxiety. I sometimes get really scared that I have stretched my pouch or the band has slipped. I had my first fill 6 weeks ago and at first I was only able to eat about 1/4 cup of food. Now, I can eat 2 cups of food with no problems. This has caused some massive worry and anxiety. Also, I have been emotionally eating again, but even with having no restriction, I am not able to eat as much as I needed to before to fill the emotional need. I am feeling very frustrated and hopeless!! I just want to feel happy and like myself again!!! Has anyone out there experienced problems like this? or even any problems with depression or anxiety post surgery? Any advice will be greatly apprecieated!!!! Thanks:crying:
