HELP! I am STRUGGLING

Ok. I was banded 12/16/2009. Since I have lost 50 pounds. But for the last 5 weeks I have lost not one pound. Just See-Sawing back and forth with the same three pounds. Joined a gym 2 weeks ago. Got a trainer at the gym to help me with the equipment (I don't want to end up hanging upside down from some of the equipment...It is all alien to me.) So five days a week I am getting in at least 30 min of cardio and 2 days a week I am doing circuit with a trainer.

 

I had a fill in March which I thought was too tight. Now I am asking was it really too tight. I could not eat breakfast until 10 ish then I would struggle to get in 3 oz of yogurt. I definately was not getting enough fluids. So, the fill was reduced by .3. Now no problems in the eating area or with getting fluids.

 

I need some advice or ideas from a seasoned lapbander.

 

Thanks.
