Wow Dawn! That's quite an accomplishment! I was banded April 9, and have twice hit plateaus! Stuck currently.

What's your secret?

I was banded 4.14.08. I lost 16lbs pre-surgery and only 5 since. But, I had my 1st fill yesterday, so I'm hoping to start losing again! (Although I'm eating way less, I haven't lost since going off the liquid diet a month ago) :(

How are you feeling? I am feeling pretty good. Had my first fill this AM and hope it helps with the feeings of hunger and increase the weight loss. The doctor was happy with 16 pounds. I am excited for this next phase!

How are you feeling? I am feeling up-set with myself because I am not losing the weight as I thought. I am going in for another fill since I have no restriction yet. I have 3 cc in a 10 cc band and nothing. But other than that, I feel good and confident that I will lose weight with help from the band.

My start weight was 267 and I am currently 223 (stuck here for a few days now). I just joined a Gym and hope to get things moving again.
I will get my 2nd fill on the 25th of June. I have a 4cc band with 1cc in. I was getting kind of uncomfortable in my size 22 jeans and now I am wearing size 16. I Love My Band!!!!

Chillie,
Please don't be upset. You don't say how much you have lost but this is really a slow process. I also thought it would be much faster. I told my surgeon that and he said if I wanted fast I should have gone for the by-pass instead. He was happy with the 16 that I lost in 6 weeks. I thought he was going to be disappointed in me. My first fill has helped some, but I plan for another in a month or so. I hit the 20 pound mark today. I worked hard for that one!!

Hang in there.
