I had surgery on Tuesday to reposition my band. I guess it was a pretty severe slip, although I could eat after he took most of my saline out. I am so thankful that I was able to keep my band, and that I get a second chance. I gained back 13 pounds while I was unfilled...however, I am determined to take this second chance and work my band!!

I am on full liquids for two weeks then mushies for two weeks. Thank you so much for always being there for me!! You guys rock!!
