If you're eating bigger portions and you can eat solid meals, so that you're not relying of soft foods, you most probably need a fill.

Try to fit in a brisk walk at lunch, and other times during the day. Take the steps rather than the elevator. Park at the end of the lot. Try to work in more cardio on your days off. Add a little weight training if possible. When your work slows up a bit, hopefully you'll be able to fit in more exercise.

Try to start fresh, and not lament the weight gain. With the band, you can always have a new day one. Good luck!!!

Just a quickie for the record.

A stone is the old weighing system,

16 ounces =1 pound.

14 pound = 1 stone.

2.2pound (lb)=1 kilo

LOL I am showing my age now.

I agree that if you are able to eat solids easily then you most likely need a fill.

Good Luck

A fill sounds like a good idea, you dont stop needing them just because you're at goal. This is a lifetime thing.

Also, being busy sucks, I've had two months from hell too. But you just HAVE to keep exercising no matter how you do it. I swear that's how I dont gain because I sure dont eat as carefully as I did when I first got banded.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
