I am 4 months out and due for my 3rd fill in a few days. Having my second period since April and it is horrible!! I know that when I go for my fill it will show my weight as the same or more!! what the heck is going on? is this due to a period now and practically hemmoraging or just a plateau? I have lost about 38 lbs since May..help!?!? will the next fill help??:smile2:

You have done great! 38 pounds since May is awsome. Yes, your period probably has a lot to do with it. It is probably Water retention. You should see a drop in the scale when it's over. Keep doing what your doing and it will come off. I hope the fill helps. It took me 3 fills to feel restriction. Best wishes!

I'm right there with you. I finally just reached good restriction and it's like a whole new world has opened up. Before that, I was gaining and losing the same 3 pounds over and over.

Now the band is really starting to work. Keep getting those fills and hang in there. It will get better.

I gain about 3lbs every period. It STINKS. But I know it will come off. I chose to skip a 3rd fill this last monday and pushed my appointment out another month because I am not hungry between meals that often so I hope this next fill will be the one for good restriction!
