Please dont fret!! I had my surgery late June last year (2007), I was really disheartened because my loss was so slow!! My start weight was almost 22 stone, I am now down to 15 Stone. It took a number of visits to my surgeon, I now have 5mls in my band and continuing to do well. YOU TOO CAN DO IT, UNFORTUNANELY IT CAN TAKE TIME. Keep going it will fall into place. PS make sure your fills are achieved, I had a few visits where fills were supposedly achieved but were not! sorted now! God Bless. It has been a success for me so far and I hope also for u.
