The weight lost your describing is very normal. Usually it takes about 4 to 5 fills before you start feeling real restrictions. Your doing great. Lap band surgery is about 1 -2[ibs per week.. Stay off the scales and relax. Good luck 2 you both. (at 7.5 )

I had a fill on Monday, I am at 7.5. I am experiencing not able to swallow solid food, don't matter if its a finger nail size and I chew forever. I instantly feel like I need to burp but can't. I am going to hang in there, since I waited so long for my lapband to work. Having some taking out my last option.
