I feel the same way I was banded on Dec 29,2010 and lost only 36 lbs and at a stand still. I workout daily in this Texas heat..... Just hang in there we've came so far just to give up.

I feel like I'm in the same boat as you....I haven't told anyone but my husband because if my family finds out they will freak. My mom is a big believer that if you want it bad enough you would work for it. She doesn't realize that even having the band you still have to work for it. So as for right now I'm keeping it to myself. It's been great! I would also like to keep in touch with you and hopefully we could help each other.

Thank you for your encourgement. I really needed that today. For the longest I wanted the band and I finally got it in Dec 2010. I was having my up and downs but I finally got my 1st fill and I seem to see a difference with only 2.5 cc in my band.

Hello Amy! It was 2 weeks yesterday for me. Could I ask you how your progress has been so far? I also go to my dr today. Since my surgery I've only losted 8 lbs. I'm starting to feel more hungry and I'm thinking about asking my dr about getting a fill. I finally got over the soreness and I started to walk 2 hours a day yesterday (one hour before work and another after cooking dinner). I hope that will help and I could keep it up.
