Not Losing

I was banded on 06-17-09. I lost 30lbs on the pre-op diet, and NOTHING since the surgery. I have been keeping a journal of the things that I eat and I workout. I am beyond pissed. I am seriously thinking about having it removed. I am going to give it a yr, but until then. Does anyone have any ideas on what the problem may be? I have asked my provider to check it but he insist that nothing is wrong wih the band nd there is no need to check it. HELP!!!!:tt1:

Yes, I have had 5 fills. I currently have 11cc in my band.

That sounds like your band is not working. Your doctor needs to check to make sure everything is working correctly. I would insist on it!
