Slimming

[lucymae 0]

I had LB on 2-18 and had my first fill on 4-8. I don't feel any restriction except once in awhile when I eat meat if I don't take small bites I will feel a little restriction and start slimming. If I didn't do that I would not believe that I really had a LB. I am looking forward to my second fill next week because I need more restriction. I have not gained any weight since my fill but I have NOT lost any either. My question is - Why do we have the slimming issue after LB surgery? What does it mean? It is such a wierd feeling and my husband thinks I am nuts when I tell him about it. Only LB'ers understand.

I was also banded on 2/18 and had my second fill 3 weeks ago. I do feel a lot more restriction this time and have to be careful or things do get stuck, but I've also hit a plateau and I know I have to step it up a little..exercise more & stick to the diet rules. I've only lost 3 lbs in the last 2 weeks. Kind of a let down after the first 6 weeks and losing 25 lbs.:thumbup:

I lost 25 pounds in my first two weeks. Since then I haven't lost ANY weight. In fact I've gained 2 to 3 pounds. Is this normal? I have been following the diet, walking everyday, and doing evertying i was told. I was banded on may 5th. Please someone help me! I want to lose a few more pounds before my first fill. Am I doing something wrong? What can I DO?
