I also wanted to add I weighed in today at 169.4 I'm drinking water now and feel full. I'm not hungry. I do feel restless though

Thanks Bandista Its an exciting journey! The support here helps a lot. I had been on here prior to getting banded over 6 years ago doing all my research. Here I am again! I am excited to be back on the bandwagon

I am back after a few years off. Got a slight fill about 3 weeks ago, going back next week for another. I came across the 5 day pouch reset. I have never heard of this, although my drs nutritionist said I could go on a 2 week liquid diet for 2 Weeks. I was thinking it would be good to reset my pouch. I have not had too much restriction in a couple years at least and have dieted by doing south beach diet to maintain. I am going to start tomorrow and I'm excited at starting this journey once again!

Since it has been so long, I was kinda wondering if there was any way I may have stretched my pouch. I think its best to know where it actually is before I get a fill and to make it as effective as possible! I am having my morning coffee now with my sugar free creamer. Have my almond milk and low carb 25 grams protein shakes for later. Plus sugar free jello and a couple soups for later. I am really excited to start over! Thanks for the encouragement

Thanks for the encouragement! I really need it. I know I eat a LOT less than I used to pre band. My all time highest after I had my daughter was 240, but I was able to lose it going on and off Lindora but could never keep it off. I can't believe its been over 6 years since I have been banded. I am totally ready to recommit myself and ready to get to my goal and maintain it. I see your at less than your goal? Congrats! So did you keep getting fills till you got to where you wanted to be then adjusted your current fill level to maintain your current weight? I am looking for a support group on here to regularly check into. I saw there is a lower bmi group. How do you get your support?

Thanks I am looking forward to getting the support and getting back on track. I am so tired of dieting just to maintain although I know I have to get back to the bandster rules of protein first then veggies. I really need to review!
