Hello, I had the Lab Band May 26th and have lost 27 lbs. I feel as if the band is not tight enough or I am eating the wrong things in order to loose weight. I know this sounds gross but I am also constipated and I don't know how to remedy it. If you know of any solution for that I would appreciate it. Another thing.... I thought with the band you could still eat what you want but you would only be able to eat an extremely small portion??? I have found that I could consume a pretty good portion in the sweet department and that is exrtremely frustrating. HELP!!! :faint:

I have an appointment next week for a fill and I am not sure about it. I am scared to have an over fill.... I have been able to eat quite a bit the past two weeks. Today on the other hand everything I ate got stuck. I don't know if it is the band being tight, which meens I don't need a fill, or if it is the texture of the food. My band is really tight in the mornings which seems to be pretty common but for some reason I don't get full. I sure could use some of your advice.
