I lost most of my weight before my first fill. Since my first fill in March 2007 (1 year) I have lost 25 lbs. I definately feel the restriction, and listen to it when its there, and can feel the difference when it leaves. I am currently on an appetite surpressant as well as definately feel the difference. My Dr. feels if it were habit, I would have no diff on the drug or off. I was tracking my meals for a while, and know when it is me being "bad" but this is definately not that. I don't have a leak (at least a measurable one)

I have been having an issue that I hope I can get some insight on. My band is filled to 11.5cc and each time I have an adjustment, I have great restriction for the first 2 weeks then less and less. It does not appear that I have a leak (or at least it is not consistent). It is starting to feel like it is in my head. :bolt: I will be going for an endoscopy soon but in the meantime was wondering if anyone else has had this issue and how it was resolved.

I've also had L shoulder pain on and off since surgery (1/07) It is usually a really good signal to me that I'm about to eat too much and I try to listen to it. Just hang in there..it will lessen as time goes by.
