To fill or not to fill?

:confused:It's Feb and my weight has not continued to drop. I have been at 239/240 for the past 4 weeks. I believe it's time for a fill. I had planned on staying away from a fill as long as I could. I wanted to try it on my own. Last one was end of Nov. I had increased my excercise and kept good eating habits, but something is not working. My meals are larger. I am very hungry before it's time to eat. I do snack. On fruits. And intake as much water as possible. My routine at work has changed and maybe that has affected me. Like taking 15 min power walks, no longer there. And doing my yoga twice a week at work, slowing declining. But I thought that since I have increased my jogging, that I would be ok. Nope. I have 29 pounds to loose to meet my BIG goal. I have to be 211 by my Band anniversary date of July 13th. That would be 100 pounds lighter in one year! About 7 lbs per month need to shed off. I DO need a fill. I will make a call soon. Why have the band and not get it filled?
