Had the same thing I have had four fills and did'nt lose weight for three months very frustrated this last fill do have restriction am going for one more though it depends different for different people and where the band was placed and how much fat between the band everyone is so different I guess patience is the key it is so hard though

Just wanted to know if any of you have less restriction at night since my last fill I have been tight in the morning then at night look out I can eat anything is this normal

How do you know if you are to tight after a fill I have been vomiting lately but before I had mod to minimal restriction I don't know if it is due to not knowing when to stop the fullness just creeps up and its too late past the point of sliming I have to vomit to painful or too tight I just don't know sorry so graphic but I feel I am eating things that go down easy not proteins anyways give me your advice

flower replied to cindyh's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
permanet was the word I got unless problems also you take it out you gain back the weight old habits die slowly; -
I heard that somewhere that if they think your band is slipped they unfill it and it drops back into place glad it worked for yu I hated anesthesia I love this site to i'm addicted it is nice to have support keep up the good work

Having really been paying attention but has something major occured in reagards to the band that we should know about.???? Let me know

I was told that your first year was your prime time to lose weight or have you guys heard differently I am a litte discouraged I have lost 40 in 4 and a half months I just lost only 2.5 in six weeks wasn't feeling full got a fill today so I hope it helps my goal was 100 in one year but when do you count the year when you feel restriction or when you got the surgery really discouraged i can't fail at this too.
