I just wanted to share a little of my 1 Year story with you all.
I was banded last year on June 19, 2009 so I just hit one year! Yay!! I was super super fast and aggressive with fills and dropped 35lbs in 4 months and I was on top of the world! Then I got some food stuck and had to go to the ER. Not fun!! I had all my Fluid taken out!!!! I had to go back to the Doctor's practically every 2 weeks and just get a really tiny fill. Guess how long it took me to get restriction back??? 6 months!!! Oh and guess how much weight I lost during that time, nothing!! Bummer I know but I learned my lesson, go really slow with fills!!!
Getting stuck was so painful and I would HATE to see that happen to anyone else!!! I am happy to report that I just had a fill last week and at last I feel like I am at the same place I was before I got the fill that made me get stuck and I feel wonderful!!! Onederland here I come!!!! =)
