Get another fill so close to goal?

[BillOh 13]

I've been at a plateau only losing about 1/2 pound every two weeks. For awhile, I haven't felt like I had much restriction. I made an appointment to discuss a fill for 6/1, but the doctor had to wax his surfboard in Maui, so it got put off till 6/29. Suddenly I have started to lose again, and I feel like I again have a good amount of restriction. I guess, I'll just go the visit, enjoy the praise and take their recommendation. My Goal, which is now about 10 pounds away is a preliminary goal, where I remember looking good. Once I get there, I may decide to set a new goal that would be a BMI of 24, which is the top end of healthy. Anyone else got a fill close to goal?

I just got a fill about a week ago and i was about 16 lbs from my goal weight that i set for myself before I got banded. Last month I gained 2 lbs and didnt feel like I had a great restriction. My fill has been great for me and I am back on track with losing weight. i think I am about 10 lbs from my goal now but have since changed my final goal to about 35 more lbs off. I am hitting my one year banded 7/23 and I'm worried because after 1 yr. my insuren. stops paying for my monthly apt. without prior notice from my family doctor. Good luck with making it to your goal

I didn't think of the insurance issue, I'll keep that in mind when the year comes around.

Bill, i have been asking my self the same question should I get a fill. I am almost at goal but I am getting hungry every 3 hours. I am trying to hold out to see if adding maintenance calories will help. I do work out a lot and that could be the reason for the hunger. I am trying to give it another 3 weeks to see what I feel like at goal. If adding calories does not work I will get one. ( I have only had 2 fills in total) Good luck and congrats on your success!
