Hello Everyone,

It has been a while since I have posted. I got my band in June of 08 and have lost 60#. Three weeks before my band surgery I had a knee injury. Long story short, I couldn't even walk-sleep-sit without pain. I had a scope done on my knee this past Dec. to repair a torn medial meniscus and found out at that time I need a total knee replacement due to arthritis and being overweight for so long. I can barely walk let alone exercise. I have not had a fill since late Nov. I just got back to work. I have made a Feb 5 appt. for another fill but I am extremely worried about my weigh in. I have been eating ~ eating ~ eating. I am in tons of pain and am quite depressed about everything... I am hoping that a fill will get me back on track. It seems my quality of life is not that great as of late. I am so tired of hurting,.....

Anyway, I will be off the Dr for a fill soon. I sure hope I can get some restriction.

Thanks for listening,

Stacey

Your doing the right thing by getting back on track with another fill. Don't worry about the weigh-in, your doctor has seen it before (and he'll understand because your unable to exercise).

I have been at the same weight for nearly 3 months. I just got another fill, and already I am able to get back on track.

Best Wishes
