I got my last fill in July and have a feeling it was too tight. Most of the time I would eat I would end up throwing up. It didn't matter if it was moist chicken or Soup. I would end up in the bathroom each time I would eat. Overall I wasnt happy and my weight loss was at a stand still. I was scared to go in for an unfill as I had lost 70 pounds and was happy with that and was afraid if I got an unfill that meant that I wouldn't have any restriction.
Finally, I got over myself. I joined a gym five weeks ago and started with a personal trainer twice a week. I went in and got just a small unfill. I can't express how good of a feeling it is to eat my lunch and not have to run to the bathroom! And I'm feeling better, healthier, and overall happier.
Just a note to say how thankful I am this holiday season for my band!! Can't wait to see how the weight loss continues in 2012!!
Happy Holidays Everyone!!
