I'm new to this so I haven't yet figured out how to use it and respond to each of you but I'd like to thank you all for your advice and help. I guess I was beating myself up because I was comparing myself to my sister that was banded 2 years ago and she lost 70lbs in her first 4 months. I'm a lot healthier than what I've ever been and that's a good place to be in. On my last adjustment the nurse drained my Fluid and made sure there wasn't a leak which there wasn't. I'm just hoping on my next fill in 4 weeks that I finally feel a restriction.

I got my surgery 5 months ago and since then Ive had 4 fills. I'm currently at 6.5 cc's. I feel no restriction and no different as to before surgery. I've lost 30lbs but I feel its only because I've really been pushing myself and began running 4 miles up steep hills 5 days a week and I limit myself on portions but find myself feeling hungry often. I got the band as a big aid in helping me lose weight but its saddening to feel like its been useless for me. I cut off so much food out of my life and changed my eating habits on my own. I feel like I can lose track at any moment and gain weight again. My bands max is 10 cc's and I was told average weight loss is 10lbs a month but that hasn't been my case and I'm starting to feel anxious and helpless. Anyone else out there experience my same issue?
