Hi Sherrielee,

Go back to the doctor and explain the situation. If it's not working it has to be fixed.

Take Care,

Dana

Ditto to what Dana said. Don't be embarrassed....ask for help from your Doctor.

That's what the doctor is there for -- to help. Don't keep going like this as its not good for you! Take care and good luck

Yea! you need to go back..you could set your body in starvation mode..Its not a good feeling.I say you go back to the doc..Best of Luck

If you can't eat properly...the band is too tight. I resisted a too tight band because I was miserable not being able to eat normally with normal sized bites along with my friends. It helps sooo much when you can eat normally AS LONG AS you eat the right things! We all slip and eat foods we shouldn't when we can but tight or loose, the only way to truly lose this weight and keep it off is to learn how to change your eating habits for good and to start exercising. Can't rely on a tight band to do the work for you...it's not sustainable and you will never be happy with your results. So go to your doctor, explain that you are ready to make this band work for you and let him help you. We can do this!
