Yikes, I have gained weight - 1st time!

As of June it will be two years since getting banded, for the first time I have gained weight -11lbs to be exact.

I have never had this happen but I am not going to let it slide. I have an appointment in two weeks for a fill thankfully.

I am refocusing on my diet and exercise - looking back to my old success from when I first got my band, I just need to take good look at what I have learned and reapply it once again :smile:

I think it happens to the best of us. :thumbup:

Just think, you're still under 200 lbs, so that is awesome! I would do just like you said - refocus, etc.

I'm only 1 day out from my band - praying that I see a magic number under 200 at some point.

I always like to use the famous line from "Finding Nemo"...Just keep Swimming, Just Keep Swimming. :smile:

Thank you so much, your post was really nice and it made me feel better about myself, I really really appreciate it :smile:

Give yourself a pat on the back for stepping in quickly and not waiting until things were waaaay out of hand.

You have the tools, now put them back into play. you can do it!

Get your fill, and go back to band rules. That is the joy of banded life. We can tune it up and be back on track.

Best wishes!

Thank you Cocoa Bean :thumbup: the fill will certainly help and just the past two days I have really looked back and refocus, plus utilizing this site is so crucial to my success.
