I think that we should all keep in mind that it is not the number on the scale that always matters. It is the way we feel, the way our clothes are to big, the way that our body looks, numbers don't always count. I had been unfilled for 6 months and did not gain or lose a pound yet my body changed drastically. I just went for a fill a week ago and I am so uncomfortable. I believe that if you don't get a fill but you know your restrictions in your mind and body you will be ok. The doctor is not always right
