Long time, no see, OH!

My computer died a few months after my last post, so it's been awhile. I am definitely going to try to make it a habit to post here more often.
I accomplished my goal that I mentioned a couple of posts back; I lost the 30 lbs! AND I am officially (as of today) under 200 lbs!!!!! 199, baby! I got a fill that kick-started my weight-loss, and I started "behaving myself" again. So I'm on my way! (I actually typed 'weigh'! HAHAHAH)
Ideally, I'd like to lose 70 more lbs. But I will settle for 50. But quite honestly, I will be grateful for ANY weight loss.
My current BMI is 37.6 and when I started researching WLS, it was at 59. I can't believe how much I've lost, how far I've come. My heighest weight was 303. I can't BELIEVE I'm at 199!!!!!
Ok, I'll stop bragging, but I posted some new pictures, so take a look!

I know one of my downfalls is that I have NOT been drinking enough water. So I am making myself do it right now. I'm not a big water fan. I much prefer diet sodas, but of course, those aren't good for me. I have to remind myself that not only is water good for my weight-loss but it clears up my skin, which is currently FREAKING OUT right now. I hope I can keep doing this.
first post, ugh.

I am so depressed and so disgusted with myself, my (lack of) weight loss. I was banded on May 23, 2005. For the past 10 months I have been at the SAME weight and it is driving me nuts. I actually think I've gained 3 lbs. I go in for a fill tomorrow, much to my relief, but at the same time I am scared to go. I am scared to show my doctor my lack of progress. :/
I know I've been eating like crap. And I've realized that I am a compulsive eater or something. I just don't know how to STOP EATING sometimes, even when I'm not hungry. I know I am at fault for this.
I have started over and I am trying my best to get this under control and finish the weight loss that I have started. But it is hard. I feel like I am going to be 225-230 for the rest of my life. That I will never get below 200 lbs.
My goal right now is to lose 30 lbs. I've done it before and I can do it again. I just need to kick myself in the ass. :/
P.S: Halloween? (my fave holiday) Trick or treating? (Have a 4 yr old) NOT. HELPING. :/ (Well I haven't eaten any candy YET..)
