Finally banded...again

Hi all--

I just got my surgery yesterday! I am so excited! I had the band once before, but had some complications and had it removed. Now after 2 years, I have gotten banded again! Yipee!

    I think I my bad was too tight (over-filled) and the doctor said it slipped. At the time I didn't really notice a difference. I had been banded for about 3 years and lost about 80 pounds. I was down to a size 10 and basically 5 pounds away from my goal weight. It has been a long journey and I'm hoping to get back down to that size again. The problem is, this time when I had the surgery I was already 40+ pounds heavier than when I had the surgery the first time! :smile: We'll see!
