So how are you doing so far? I was banded on Sept 13, 2010 I can eat just about anything i have not pushed the limits with the amount of food I eat though, sometimes i feel like I eat too much it's worries me, dr said I have 4cc's in my band I am losing weight some weeks and staying the same some weeks and gaining one or two lbs some weeks..I sure hope I am doing this right. let me know how you are doing I am curious to know if anyone else feels like they can eat too much.

I'm doing ok. I had my first fill today. I am still able to eat what seems to be alot of food. I had Soup for lunch today and 2 hours later I was starving. My mom has been banded for over a year and she said it took her 3 fills before she felt restriction. I have lost 10 lbs so far and while I'm *trying* not to compare myself to others, it's hard not to. I'm trying to be patient and eat better. I know its a process and it will get better.

Hi! true happiness comes from being a member of the forum. I want to change my body. it was too rough. I can not do much. Hopefully, the next three months I will have good signs.
