Hi everyone,
I was banded 3 years ago, and 18 months of that time I was either pregnant or nursing. I'm now picking up where I left off and feel like I'm starting over b/c I can't remember anything of what I'm supposed to be doing. I'm looking for tips, food ideas, ANY and all advice to help get me moving on this journey again. My total weighloss goal was 80, and I am only down 25 lbs. (I'm only 4'8") During pregnancy I gained 35 and lost it, so I am exactly where I left off. The thing is, I can't seem to get motivated and have no one really to discuss my situation with.
I just had my first fill since being completely unfilled during pregnancy. I have a REALIZE Band, and I am up to 4cc. The first week or so was GREAT, I felt the restriction but now...I don't really feel the restriction anymore.
Can anyone explain why? Why did the band feel tight the first week or so and now feel pretty darn loose again?
Hope to read some good advice on this forum.
