HeatherinCA 10 Posted May 30, 2011 Just because you can eat anything doesn't mean you should, eat 1200 calories a day. Or you wont lose weight. PERIOD. The band isn't there to stop you from eating. You have to be accountable for what goes in your mouth. You can't complain about no weight loss if you aren't eating a proper diet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
reverie 49 Posted May 30, 2011 Are you counting your calories, exercising, getting your Water in, etc? The weight isn't going to fall off like it did immediately post-op. Make sure your calories are in check, exercise, and see where the scale goes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
azbtrfly 2 Posted May 31, 2011 Sounds like you need a fill, but like everyone else said you have to watch your calories and what you put in your mouth, the band won't stop you, only you can. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kelli01 5 Posted May 31, 2011 I was having the same Problem, I Finally got some restriction, with fill # 3 total of 6 cc in 10 band. So hard to focus and stay positive when you are so discouraged! Get another fill ASAP Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hopetolose 192 Posted May 31, 2011 Sounds like a fill would help you with you hunger. Schedule an appt soon!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vlp1968 83 Posted May 31, 2011 I agree that a fill would probably help, or at least get you one step closer to restriction. I also second the excersise advice. There are so many benefits, just one being weight loss. Start out slow and gradually increase your duration/intensity. Best wishes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
