I had my surgery Dec 22, 2006 and have lost only 18 pounds so far....i have had three fills and i am thinking about another because I eat and I am still hungry....I really wanted this to work for me....I am very depressed over it....I too can eat junk which i am trying very hard to stay away from....I here all of your stories and feel the same....i have gone down two sizes but still dont like what I see in the mirror....I dont know what to eat and when i do eat feel guilty for eating...I need someone to prepare my meals and snacks then maybe i would be on the right track..but for now i have to let my stomach growl and drink my water....good luck all...NJ

I had my surgery on 12/22/06..i am new here and want to know about adjustments...i have had three so far and still feel like i can eat anything...I have to watch what i eat I am a muncher and I am really trying to stop that...I was going to call my Dr. again and have another...i have only dropped 18 pounds so far....very frustrated...i have a party to go to in may and want to see a difference....HELP!!!!!!..
