it was .4cc, and today I am much better. I can have a boast in the am, Soup for lunch, with tuna and melba toast, and dinner very small. snack later. I was at the gym tonight, and the grouse grind on suday, I was 1.21 minutes, (this is 2.9 km up the mountain and tram down). my time was slower than november (1.13) but it was my first time this year. I will stay with this fill, but it is my last one. thanks

I had a fill in the us .4cc, was too full, a nurse friend of mine took it out. put back .3cc and again .2cc I can't eat anthing! any ideas? this is been 2 days and sick of it.

I'm having a hard time, with soup, croutons (lots) and cheese, should be healthy but around 800 caleries. I'm going to stop and go for a walk instead. I think you need more protien, and exercise. I too have a problem with late night eating, when I take my evening pills. I'm starting to have cheerios with skim milk instead, and thats helping. I don't want to gain any more the weight I have lost back. good luck

I had a .4 cc fill in my band on tues. today is sunday, since then I have only keep Soup, (2x) rest came up, and cholate milk down. Water is fine. I have pain in my stomach when I try to eat. I have had 3 other fills my husband said it was the same before, but like having children you forget. I did pg this am with portage but keep the portage down. how long does this last. should I go for a slight unfill. I did try and eat reg mush food, and now am going on potien shakes. any ideas? I can't stand this anymore, I am cooking turkey dinner for 12 persons can't even eat it! p.s. before this fill I could eat my old plates of food again. and had no restruction at all.

I am getting the same thing, when i go out they say you don't need to loose more weight. I work out everyday lost about 95 pounds, am 5' 5 1/2' tall. a size 8 from a size 22. I wish to loose 13 more pounds and then I will maintain. ever notice the comments come from people how need to loose a few?

I had my 4th fill, I have had a .06, .05.05. .04cc fill yesterday. I have the worst case of heart burn, I can eat warm soup but lost a glass of water today. am I too tight? its been 5 months since my last fill, and can't remember if it was this bad. any ideas?

I lost around 90 pounds, exercise like crazy and eat fine. went on holiday 2 weeks ago, problem getting back to excersing. I am eating like before surgery, have to get back on the wagon. when I'm good the scale will only move 1-2 pounds every 4-5 weeks. it gets harder as you get closer to goal. thanks for the tips on calerios, and good luck to all. I go for a fill next week, I did not want to but I think it will get me back on tract. I have 1.7 cc in a 5cc band and will a .5 cc fill.

you have done great 35 pounds that you would not have lost. do you keep track of what you eat (I don't but should, as my weight loss has stopped). do you excersie? I went away for 10 days and am now back on the program. I even started drinking again. I will never go back to what I was.

700 is way too low for weight loss, you have to eat and excersise and it will come off. remember the band is a tool, and this is a life journey. I had to get rid of my scale, I was weighing daily, now only once a week, and I just check my cloths to see the changes.

The first 6 months weight comes off with exercise and diet. I'm into 11 months and only loose a pound a month now. I even gained 2 pounds but lost it before it got out of hand. I have to change my routine and mix up my workouts now. buts its a life change, and takes time. you have done really well.

I have lost around 91 pounds, and will need a boob lift but tummy is ok, I work out 5 days a week, and legs are great better than when I was a teen. good luck

your story has made me very happy, I'm so happy for you, i can hardly wait for my 1 year on feb 29th. congrats.
