Sue Magoo 71 Posted July 2, 2012 Hi: It's normal to be at your sweet spot for a while and then need some fill. As you lose weight you lose weight where your band is too. There are so many variables that come into play with your band. Sounds to me like you need a fill. Good luck! Sue Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SteveFrett 155 Posted July 2, 2012 When was your last fill? Everyone hits that wall! It's normal. Don't get discouraged. Remember weather has an effect on band as well. In hotter weather you'll find yourself less hungry as you progess and have your fills. Keep in mind your body shouldn't lose more than a lb a day. That allows your metabolism adjust to weight loss, rapid loss only will lead to quicker gaining. You should be adjusted every three months in beginning. Don't get frustrated don't think your making mistakes your doing it right patients will perseverance and results. Keep the faith and contact me if I can help more sweetie!

lawismylife 41 Posted July 9, 2012 As little as .05 cc's has a "demonstrable difference" in the band. I had .3 taken out once due to illness, and when I wasn't sick anymore it felt like I could plow through a ton of food. Like I didn't have a band.y surgeon had me come in once a month the first year.
