I feel the same way kershe. I was banded 1-25 and i often find myself thinking.. Damn shouldn't i be losing more? But in al reality 30 lbs in 2 months is great. We need to lose the weight slowly.. For the sake of keeping it off, lessen the risk of extra skin and sometimes i think iy can be unhealthy to lose so much so fast.

I feel your pain. But we just need to stay focused on the big picture. My goal is 8-10 lbs a month.. And in all actuality im exceeding that goal.

Keep ur chin up!

I'm so excited to see someone new to the band the truly gets it! I'm confident that you will continue to be a successful in your journey of not only weight loss but health! Your post is one that newbies should stick to their refrigerator! Congratulations, you should be proud of yourself! Most of us take much longer to "get it!"

My Surgery Was On January 11, 2013 I Started With 233 Pounds. As Today My Weight Is 200 Pounds, So I've Only Lost 33 Pounds. I Feel That Not Much Progras And Really I'm Following All The Rules. I Eat Evrey 5 To 6 Hour Small Portion .Drinks 8 Glass Of Water A Day

I Have My First Fill In2/26/2013 4cc Feel No Difference And I Feel I Can Eat More Than 6 Ounces Per ,Meal ,But I Control Myself Not To Eat Much Or Over Eating.

my Question Is You Think I'm Good Or I Do Not Have Much Progress? After The Fill And Only Loss 2 Pounds. I'm Very Confused And I Have Much Fear Of Failure In My Weight Loss Attempt ,

The Truth Is That I Feel No Restriction With 4cc And I Can Eat Anything bread, Rice, eggs, Almost Everything That Everyone Says You Can Not Eat. Like Bread Or Rice I Dot Eat But Is Because I Do Not Want. So Please ,Please Need Opinion Of You And Let Me Know If Everything Normal Ho No Tank U

I had to copy and paste + punctuate to read your post.

It can take a few fills to make a real difference. Are you 1) measuring 1/2-1 cup food that includes 4 oz lean Protein and a small serving of fruit or veggies? If not, then you're really not eating a band friendly diet and you're not going to be satisfied. 2) after this meal, do you feel hunger, real hunger, not "head hunger" or cravings, for 4+ hours? If you can go 4 hours between meals, you're good. Just have to deal with head hunger, go for a walk and try not to think about food. 3)Are you eating white carbs at all? White carbs contribute to cravings, cravings cause head hunger. Keep some raw carrots on hand, make ranch dip out of ff Greek yogurt and ranch mix, dip your carrots in it...high Protein, low fat and satisfying snack.

Even if you're hungry, eat only band friendly foods. Even eating 6 oz protein and a salad with ff dressing, you can lose and meet your nutritional needs.

Hang in there...
