Thanks for all of the great advice! I went back this week and had lost 2 lbs after increasing water intake and continuing to exercise. Headed to the therapist next week. After 4 fills, I have 3.75 cc in my band, and I'm hoping that I'll continue to progress.

I'm new here... I would really like to have some advice. My lapband surgery was in May. Since surgery I have had 3 fills, and have lost ten pounds. During the last 2 visits, I haven't lost any weight at all. This is due in part to my lack of exercise, which I have remedied in the past two weeks. After the third fill, I have eaten less. I know that my food choices havent been great, but in the past two weeks, I have made a conscious effort to stop eating when I feel satisfied, and to eat foods that are better for me. I Know that it's only been two weeks, but I have gained two pounds. Stress at work, school (doesn't everyone have that?) I am so frustrated. When I think about it, I just start to cry. I'm sorry for sounding like a whiner, especially in my first post. I have been reading posts on the site for almost a year, and I really admire those of you who have strength to do what you're supposed to and lose weight. I'm wondering if I made the wrong choice, at least during such a stressful time in my life.
