Here I go again!

My story:

Had a battle with my weight since teenage years.

Now 34. Proud mother of 2 adopted children.

Gastric band surgery Feb 2004.

Lost about 100 pounds...took until 2008.

2008 adoption of my second child....STRESS! Could not keep liquids down, had the band loosened. Back from Russia, had the band tightened, loosened, tightened, loosened...now back to where it was.

Gained back 60 pounds :(

Feeling pretty down about myself....I feel like a complete failure.

I've got to find it within myself to re-commit and get back to the basics.
