Dr. Siddiqui did a fantastic job so I didn't feel I could let him down by not losing. To date I have lost 91 lbs. I am on a little plateau right now but they usually don't last long. I am going in on the 21st of this month for hopefully my last fill. For some reason my restriction doesn't last very long. I guess all those little folds settle in around the band. I have a VG 10 cm band that Dr. Siddiqui told me would hold about 10-11 cc and right now I am at 9 cc. Maybe this time will do it.
