:cry HAD MY BAND DONE IN JULY OF LAST YEAR.IAM AT OR UNDER GOAL.HAVE LOST 75 LBS. FEEL GREAT.BUT I P-BING ALOT.I SOMETIME CAN EAT OTHER TIMES I CAN'T.I EAT ALOT OF SOUP.I WEAR A SIZE 6/7 JR.I LOOK IN THE MIRROR AND STILL SEE THE OVERSIZE ME.EVERYONE SAYS IAM SKINNY,WHICH OFCOURSE WE LIVE FOR THOSE WORDS.MY DAUGHTER SAYS I LOOK UNHEALTHY.I DON'T KNOW IF I NEED A UNFILL OR NOT.I THINK I EAT TO FAST AND DON'T CHEW ENOUGH.BUT IAM HOLDING MY WEIGHT ,BUT I HAVE TO WORK AT IT (HOLDING THE WEIGHT),BY EATING HIGH CALORIE STUFF IF I SEE IAM LOSING MORE THAN I SHOULD.

I ended up having a total unfill to maintain my weight. As for still seeing yourself as overweight, that takes time to come to terms with. Its different for everyone, but it took me a solid year before I totally accepted that the image I saw was really me, and not an illusion.

Do you really want to risk losing your band because of an overfill? Shouldn't you be maintaining by eating healthy foods vs. high cal foods? You've come so far, I'd hate to see you lose your band because you are either too tight or not eating properly.

Just be careful.

Thanks For The Reply.you Really Get Scared To Do Anything.i Sure Don't Want To Gain It Back.had And Intestnal By-pass Back In The 70's It Is Still Intack.i Had This 50 Lbs That Went Back And Forth.now I Don't.

I must have missed the part about PBing a lot. That is in no way good for your band health. I would be more worried about losing my band to a slip because I was PBing than gaining weight after an unfill.

Well,guess You Pretty Well Answered My Question.even Though I Kinda Knew The Answer But Wasn't Wanting To See It,i Need A Unfill!!!!
