  1. Hello, I'm new to this site and have probably the same questions as others. I was banded on September 1 and lost 18lbs in the first two weeks! OMG--I was soooo Excited! Then, I lost about two or three more up to my first fill which wa the end of October. I must mention how excited I was to lose more weight and then, sssccchhhrreeecchhh....no more weight loss. Well, I began to reflect what I was doing wrong, and I must admit, I was slowly moving back to my old eating habits but just not eating as much. Then, I tried exercising more, and still no loss. I went back to high Protein (tuna, scrambled eggs, low fat turkey and chicken sausages) and it appeared that I lost four lbs---and then they're back again! I'm getting my second fill tomorrow and my question is--are most banders losing weight after the second and third fills? Honestly, I really don't want to fail at this! Thank you so much for the time! I want to be healthy!
