My band hurts...HELP

OK Guys...I know I have been kinda absent for alittle while, but you are all in my heart(band area) every day!!!

So...here goes....I need some help

I think I might have done something, I don't know what, but something to my band...might be good though

From Thanksgiving to Christmas is always trying, food and parties, I know I have drunk alittle too much wine and munched alittle too much...but as of today no gain actually down a pound from last friday, so I thought I probably needed a fill after the holidays since I can eat more then I thought I should. Well here is my new situation after hristmas Day. Christmas Eve I talked with my hubby about it, and we really can't afford a fill right now(most expensive place in town!!!!) but I was saying I just didn't feel like it was working as well, and I was kinda depressed about it. Well...Christmas morning I woke up and had alittle coffee, and felt like I didn't need to eat, three bites of eggs and 2 bits of home-made traditional Christmas Sausage(treat for my family) and I felt almost uncomfortable and almost stuck( and I had chewed well)...Then I didn't want anything to eat, not even Cookies...Dinner, PRIME RIB, I had 3-4 bites of the meat and 3 bites of potatoe and green bean cassarole and I felt like I did at Breakfast, I DIDN'T WANT TO EAT ANYTHING ALL THE REST OF THE DAY!!!!!!!!!!! Oh yea, and if I gulp at all while I drink, I feel the sticky feeling....WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON..............?????????????????????????????............HELP, IS SOMETHING WRONG, OR DID THE BAND JUST START WORKING AGAIN??????

I can bet you that in a matter of days you may lose your restriction again. Keep us posted.

I know right before I start my period I have much more restriction and things that I had been eating w/o a problem become difficult. I would try some Soup and see how you feel after a day or two.
