I s there anyone that has been banded over a year. My band anniversary was Nov. 2, I got my last fill on Oct. 28. I had losted 62 lbs., since the fill which was only a half cc, I have not had much restriction and I am sorry to say I have gained 6 pounds. What is going on, things had been going so well, at least up till October. I was very restricted and not hungry between meals. I want to get back on track, any suggestions or advice is welcomed!!

I have had the band for 4 years, lost the inital 50lbs and let my compulsion for food take over my life once again. I have a new level of commitment that I have never had before and now am allowing the band to work for me. The fact that you are "determined" is a huge step. I had neither determination or commitment which are absolutely necessary. I would suggest another fill and do what you know worked for you in the beginning. Like you said , "you just need to get back on track". This site has helped me more than I could have ever imagined. So stay posted and let the members encourage you and give you helpful suggestions and support. This site also gives you accountability, which is so very important as well. Blessings

Sounds like you may need an adjustment. I have had 4 fills all about .5 cc's each and I am finally at the point where I feel restriction. I would make an appt with your doctor and take it from there. Good luck!
