I can't wait for my next fill! I am off to Germany in May for a family celebration and have set myself the goal of a stone off by then. It was my son's birthday today so it has been so hard today ( special birthday breakfast and pizza hut in the same day!) I have a grand total of 14 cals left!!!!!

Hi....I have just found this site after being band on 23rd of Jan. The 2 week diet helped me loose 14 lbs but then nothing happened...... 2 fills later I have lost 4lbs more.....I am hoping that one more fill will give some restriction as at the moment it is just calorie counting and being hungry. I am hoping that this small lose will keep me motivated and with the kids back at school on Monday I even plan to go to the pool! SWIMMING COSTUME...WHAT A NIGHTMARE....Has anyone else struggled to get the scales moving in the right direction.....would love to join your group as i really could use some encouragement

Hi ..it sounds like you are doing great! So I think you should trust your instincts...Do you feel like it is a struggle to loose? If not , then don't fix what is not broken!!! You can always have a fill if it starts to get harder!! I had my band on the 23rd of Jan. I lost 14 lbs pre op and in the first week but then nothing for ages. I have had 2 fills and slowly an starting to feel a little restriction. I have finally lost 4 lbs over the last 2 weeks .......what a relief....but needed to work quite hard. I am calorie counting with a site called weight lloss resources. I love that it as works out the nutritional breakdown and also how many portions of fruit and veg I have had.I am looking forward to my next fill in 2weeks as I don't feel I am getting much help get!!! I hope to be doing as well as you soon!!!!
