Hi, I had my surgery on November 24th ant too lost a lot in my first month, totaling 37 lbs. I had my 1st fill in January, and my second in March, totaling 6cc. I have NO restriction and have a big appetite again I gained back 12 lbs too!!!! I go for another fill on the 6th of March....they all have been flouroscope too, so the surgeon can see the restriction and says it is still working great, but I do NOT feel it. Is there hope for me????

I do not know how close Veron Hills or Harvard Illinois are to you....but there is a Bariatric Center that works out of both places. They are called the Bariatric Center Of Illinois. Doctor Leslie Mcclelan is the Surgeon. They are very good and professional. I just had my Lap Band Surgery on November 24th! It is great I LOVE it!! -

I too am having a hard time motivating to exercise:redface: I get my first fill Thursday. I am excited but also wondering will I be one of those that needs two or three to feel restriction? Good luck Pat and please let us know how it goes:thumbup: -

I have no restriction but did loose 2 over the Holidays! I just wanted to stay the same and not gain. I can eat just like normal, but not quite as much as before when I would binge! I have my first fill on the 15th and also want to get moving now. Hugs to all!! Tammy -

I have been the same way for the past couple of days!! I have absolutely no restriction. The swelling in my stomach must have gone down and now the band is just sitting there. I think that is what is going on?? I am able to eat anything and now feeling really hungry again. I am going to try and get back into the good choices tomorrow. Right now I am eating sugar free Russell Stovers candy!! I am trying to stick to alot of protein, but am able to eat way more than 3 oz at a sitting. My fill is January 15th:eek: -

Great on the weight loss too:thumbup:I also finally went into the 230's! Started in the 260's:blink:I did break and have a few sugar Cookies yesterday, but I also do not feel quilty.
