3rd fill

I've recieved my 3rd fill, I think I'm doing good. It seems like every month I loose about 4-5 pounds. I want to do better than that. I want to loose 19lbs in 3wks. I no that may seem crazy, but I'm going to try. My 1st target weight is 300lbs. And I am 19lbs from that. Am I pushing myself too hard?????

I've had 2 fills so far. I lost around 22 lbs the in first 6 weeks and you're right, it took a combined 2 months to lose another 10. I think you are doing fine. I hope to get better restriction with the next fill. and no, It doen't seem crazy to want to lose more than 5 lbs a month.

The scale can be a fickle mistress sometimes. I try to set my goals around what I really have control over -- my portion control, my food choices, my water (thanks for the post, BG!) and my exercise. That scale's gonna do what it's gonna do!
