So, after two years of not being able to see my doc (insurance nightmares!) I got in today, had an upper GI and got my band filled. I feel like I am starting this fresh and I am excited. It was horrible being in school, single parent and all the crap I went through 3 years ago and try to go 115 miles and get check ups, I just couldn't do it then and my state of mind was not one to be using my tool effective ( i feel terribly guilty for that!). Horrible timing in life. But, now I have my degree, a great new man in my life, my kids are older and I have a great job with insurance! Yeehaw! So, I am back! I am just glad I havent gained all my weight back- but I am no where near where I want to be. Thanks for listening, or, reading rather.

The great thing is you've already had the surgery so that hurdle is over with. I too am just now finishing up my degree so I know how difficult that can be with juggling kids and a work life. Get some fluid in your band and jumpstart your journey again. Good luck!

That's awesome! I am in the same boat as you. I didn't see my doc for a year, due to the same reasons...school, young child, hectic life, etc. I have started again and am excited. Ready to progress on the path I've chosen and use my band to its fullest! Best of luck to you as you start over!!!!

That is great I can definitely understand what you have gone thru. It makes the world of difference when school is complete, kids are older, and that special someone is there to encourage U along the way. Congratulations and keep up the good work.
