Why Can't I feel restriction? Banded 2/2/2012 Help

[loseit 28]

I am gaining weight and I can not feel restriction anymore.

I was banded 2/2/2012. I have had fill after fill and still they same.

What do I do?

What are you chasing? Are you chasing a sensation that stops you eating? A band is not about restriction in that way it is supposed to make you satisfied on smaller portions of healthy food, the tighter you are the less likely you are to be able to eat those healthy foods and the more likely you are to eat high calorie non satisfying sliders.

The other thing is that bands after a while seem to become ineffective. It may be that your band has come to the end of its useful lifespan and you may need to consider a revision

What does your surgeon say? If you get a fill and don't notice any difference... the band may be damaged.

http://I get a fill today. Going to give it two weeks to see if things change. Dr says it should be pretty tight. If after two weeks I may have a upper GI to look and see what things look like. Praying restriction is back.
