Banded right after Christmas

[bethpia 0]

I was banded by Dr. Billlings in Edmonds, WA on December 29 and had my first fill 2 weeks ago - I have lost a total 25 lbs. Right after surgery the band was very tight and I had no trouble losing, but now feel like I can eat almost as much as before the surgery. And, I have those darn carb. cravings in the evenings. I go back to the doc. in two weeks for another fill but an afraid I will gain weight in the meantime. I have NO will power...

:help:

Bethpia, its okay to gain a couple lbs. That happened to me in between fills. You will be okay once you have the proper restriction.
