frustrated

I started my lap band journey in February 2010. I am 5 feet 4 inches. I weighed 296 pounds. I had my surgery in October 2010. Currently, I am 209 pounds. For the last 3 months, I have gained and lost the same 4-6 pounds. I had gotten down to 198 ponds, but I was throwing up everything. I had to have fluid removed from my band. I am now going through the process of trying to find my "sweet spot" all over again. I have had 3 fills since the fluid was removed. I have felt no restriction at all, well until recently. I had a fill over a week ago. I have been able to eat whatever I wanted, and this morning I feel restriction. I am still not sure how this whole band works. I mean why would it tighten so long after the fill. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to jump start my weight loss again? I mean it seems like everyone is different. The band works differently for everyone, so how do you stay motivated during periods of no weight loss? I do not mean to seem insensitive to those who are also struggling and have lost less weight then I have. I am proud of my loss, but I still need to lose so much more, and I just feel like I am stuck. Thanks for reading my blog.
