Hi everyone. I'm Elizabeth, and I'm a band failure. I was banded in 2002 at 212 pounds. I lost all the way down to 120, but the weight crept back on. I'm obsessed with ice cream. Anyway, I got my last fill 4 months ago at 200 pounds. It was too tight, so I was completely unfilled. Since then I've gained 25 pounds. I'm going in tomorrow to get refilled. I really am sad about basically starting this journey over heavier than I was. I would love to get some support from other banded people. This time I am determined to get over ice cream and get back down to the size 4 that I was!

welcome!

wow, interesting read. I guess this just goes to show us non bandsters that this is complete lifetime commitment and it's not easy :frown:

I'm new here and have enjoyed reading pretty much every thread! I'm sure you will too. good luck on your journey...you did it once, you can do it again :thumbup:

Best wishes on restarting your journey. I am glad you have the band to help you. I understand your ice cream love....I ate a huge amount yesterday, then realized what I had done and made a vow to stick to buying small quantities....notice I didn't say I vowed to never have it again!!!!!!
