thank you all for your help it means a lot... i hope i can loose 100 pounds in 9.5 months thats a really big blessing!! keep it up ladies

wow my doctor told me i was max out in a 4cc i think im going ask her to put 0.3cc in just to see what she says..i might be trippin but i think i do need another fill. its not like im at a 4.1 or 4.2 im at a 4cc in a 4cc band hummmmm. its a alergan band is there a difference?

im right were u are so dont feel bad! im in a 4cc band im at 4cc the 1st fill was a 3cc then the following week another1cc so im maxed out and there are times i can eat more and there are sometimes i cant get any restriction, some times im feelin a lot of restriction. so your not alone. I have gained lost re-gain re-lost . i made a appt to see the doc on the 5th of aug so i shall see what she says and get back to you maybe we can tag up and see what the heck is our bodys problem..lol hang in there

go ahead and eat because after your fill you will be back on a clear or full liquid diet for 24 -48 hours.

Greetings all my name is Marie 37 cali "baybay" divorced mother medical / cancer unit working on my RN BSN kids are alomost grown one is leaving for the navy in sept keep him in prayer please.

i truley understand my "EX" did the same thing he was all cool til i had the surgery acting the same way your man is... BUT if i didnt have health issue that was leading me to my death bed then that would be a different story but you must DO4U and nobody else . if you cant out your self 1st who will ??? well good luck and god bless.

i get relax fit from walmart i all ways find them on sale 11.00- 15.00 i fig if im loosing i dont wanna spend alot until i reach my goal

hummm some places i tell them to bring a box and i put what i know im going to eat on the plate and the rest in the box thats next day lunch or dinner. and some places i tell the waitress im under medical care i can only hold so much and i order from the Sr .side no kiddie meal nothing to take home..LOL

I Heard that! it would be sad if thats the only Doctor in that area who can "HELP" you but do as you please and do whats best for you but there are somethings you can keep to your self!.

well you go gurl!!!!!!!! congrats!!!!!!!!

you all looking good keep up the good work will post my pixs up soon!

NO! dont get fills because everyone is getting them remember this is not "gastric bypass" your doing great you should loose 1-2 pounds per week with exercise (4-8 pounds month) you lost 22 it can be a mind teaser when you listen to every one else im eatting 1200-1400 cal a day and was band 05-05-08 and lost a total of 50 as this month im happy!. you may be like me and loose little weight but a great deal of Inch, this is your body it needs to heal, adjust it may take a while but dont rush it you will just find . i only had one fill and im doing good so why get another fill because some people say it took them 4-5 fills ? listen to your body.. take care god bless.
