I have had the same situation. I was banded January 08 and have lost 68 pounds, have 16 to go for goal weight. My doctor told me if you can a egg of any kind for breakfast, your band needs a fill. I had my 3rd fill in July. I was on a plateau, but then the scale started moving again. I find that when I have breakfast, it is always harder than at night. Just keep up good work!!:thumbup:

Hey welcome! Never be shy to ask questions. I have met some wonderful fellow lapbanders on here. Everyone supports everyone and helps each other out. Feel fee anytime! :thumbup:

My surgery was jan 22, 2008. Last visit to doctor was may 2008. I was only 27 pounds from goal at that appt. Did you have a plateau at all during your process? if you did what did you do?

I keep track. My surgery was january 22, 2008. Last time I was at Dr (may 2008) I was down 60 pounds and was only 27 lbs from goal. So I think it is just a small plateau. Did you have one at all? If you did what did you do for it? Help ? ! LOL!:eek:

Nervous, tomorrow is my 6 month weigh in. I dont think the scale has moved. I feel full, exercise regularly, do I or dont I have band adjusted again? Opinions would be helpful. I am leaning towards no adjust and see what happens in the next couple of months. Hoping someone out there can help with idea!

I am also at a stand still. I just had my surgery in january 2008. I have only lost 5 pounds in past 5 weeks. I am down 60 total since surgery, but am only 25 pounds from goal. I have noticed I have been eating differently also. Very disappointed with myself too. Any suggestions for plateau? Keep in touch, we can help each other over this hurdle! Have a great weekend.

I was banded in January 2008. Always looking for someone to be a lapband buddy/mentor. Even though I have support from my family and coworkers, it is nice to have outside support. If anyone is available, let me know!! I am only 25 pounds from goal weight and could use that little extra support, just like anyone else.

I have had this too. I am only 25 pounds from goal weight. I have family that is very supportive. And I just reassure myself, I did this for me, not for those people who think it will fail. hope that helps.

Hello, I was banded in January 22, 2008. I have lost 60 pounds since the surgery. I have reached a plateau, that I knew would come eventually. I am not sure what I can do more to help get over it and start loosing again. I am only 20-25 pounds from my goal weight. If anyone has suggestions please, I am open for ideas. Deb Hawkins :thumbs_up:
