I am still struggling to get off the weight I gained in Vegas. I am still up 1 pound but I am going to do the 5 Day Pouch Test this test and I am hoping it will help get me back on track. I can still meet my goal so I am going to try very hard.

I had a blast! It it times like this that reality sets in and you realize that it is up to us and not the band. There is always something to learn with this band. Of course, I've always known it is up to me to make good choices but after the initial weight loss it becomes much harder. I used to be able to eat almost anything and still lose but now I have to really plan and make smart choices.
I think I need a fill but I am going to see how the 5 day pouch test works and then make my decision. I hate being too tight. I've been able to lose without a lot of restriction which has been great because I haven't had any PB episodes. I am so scared of that first PB.

The PBs are not so bad - really. Once you know that you are having a PB and not a heart attack, it is mainly just uncomfortable. Nothing to be scared of. I have been debating another fill, too. I just have had two (for a total of 3cc). I have a standard AP band, so I think I have quite a way to go, if I want to fill it all up.
I just don't want to be in the situation of getting too tight and not losing because I am eating nothing but soft stuff. My big problem is listening to that little "stop" voice in my head. I really WOULD be full on less food, if I would just trust my stomach and not my eyes or my brain that says I have not finished the appropriate portion size.
Maybe just a wee tiny extra fill would help jolt me in the right direciton without making me too tight?
