I have been in your shoes. I would lose three pounds and then gain 2 back next month, back and forth. I am a year out and just now started losing at a steady weight. It took me about four or five fills before i felt the restriction. Everybody openingto stomach is different so there are a few of us that it takes a few fills before the pounds start dropping. It does work with time. I am finall losing so just be patient and use the tool.

That's great. I think after a year of fills and 2 unfill's I have found my too.
-
Love it.

I did that first few months. Lose two gain 3 and back and forth. I wil;l be a year this month and finally loising. Down 34 lbs. It takes longer for some of us. Be patient and you will get there.

I didn't start feeling restriction untill my 4th fill. I am 10 months out and just really startedto drop weight. The first few months I was like a yoyo lose a few and gain and then lose a few and gain. I am finally at a steady rate of losing.

Thank you, I feel like such a failure for not losing evern though I work out 6 days a week.

I had my band in November 2010. I had several months where I had lose and then next month gained. I felt like a failure and waisted money but my doctor always was supportive and explained everyone's body is different and people openings to stomach is larger than other. I am just now finally losing weight at a steady rate of 5lbs a month. I work out 7 days a week and watch what I eat. Don't starve your body expecially if you are working out. The weight will start dropping off. Best wishes on your journey.

I go to Jazzercise and love it. I also walk with some friends I made at jazzercise.

I used Dr. Robert Thompson. He has a Pearland office. I think he is wonderful and I love his bed-side manner.

I had to do the same. DO you have blue cross/ blue shield? It al works out. I had all three my doctors send over to insurance. Diabetic coctor, OBGYN, & primary doctor. Just pray and it will be fine.

I have found the lap-band a roller coaster with emotions. You also need to wonder if you will be a bl e to swallow your meds. I had to get off of mine.

You are doing great. Joyce Myers is very inspiratiopnal. I can relateto your journey but I finally quit looking for a man to fill my void and let Jesus be in control. Best wishes with your journey in weight lose, life, and love. You need to love yourself above all.

I have been just like you. I had surgery 11/19/2010. I have only lost 27 lbs. I have had fills every month since surgery. I just never felt any restriction. My last fill is when I am finally feeling restrition. My doctor said everyone's openingto stomach is different in few cases it takes moret o get tight. Just be patient and you will get there. Thank you becasue I felt like the only one that wasn't losing. I hear all these success stories and they make me depressed like I am a failure for spending all this money and not losing.
