Hi my name is Eileen. I had my surgery in October of 2006 and did well. I went from 272 to 165 in 2 years. Then my life became stressful. My husband and mother passed away. I retired from a job I had for 36 years due to changes in the retirement system. I was home and unhappy and started eating more and more. I have put on approx. 35 lbs and I can't seem to loss it. I feel awful. I was down to a size 10 and now I'm a 14 again. I am so uncomfortable. I was even thinking of going back to my doctor and discussing lap-band surgery. Is this possible? Maybe I just need support from people who have been there. So tell me, does anyone have any suggestions? I need your help. Thank you.
