i kinda dont feel restriction either .. but i dont eat anything like i used to .. geesh , my scale hasnt moved in a while since i was sick and it looked like i gained omg maybe i need another fill .. i may have freaked my doc outthe first fill cause i sweari could fel it ightening afterwards

im not really hungry but i eat and dont feel that much restriction

i excercised today and i hope i didnt screw anything up with my port by excercising my laterals

hey dot .. nice to meet you ! im from san antonio too , living in odessa now .. i miss it so much there

9 cc yup, so tell me what do you eat? I have had no problems with anything, how about you?

I am a night time eater, so that is the only time i have to control.

i can eat everything just about .. im trying to stay with mostly Protein , but i had oatmeal , Beans , eggs , fish , salad , just about anything .. no bread .. but still not alot of weight loss either lately

I am going in for a fill on dec 11. I really don't want to get so restricted as it seems some people get unless it gets to the point i am not losing at all. I think slow is better health wise for me. I would rather save some fills for on down the road

i think we have a 9 cc band

at least i do , in a realize band .. and i have 3 ccs in my fill .i understand about waiting but i think i would want to continue losing the weight now .. i have a freind that GAINED weight and i dont wanna do that .. lol

Nicey, you are doin great!!! I am down 25lb but seems like more, my clothes don't feel like i am stuffed in them. I am down to size 16 . I still don't have much restriction just can't eat as much but can eat anything. No problem with getting stuck no pb never have, guess i don't know what i'm missing lol. I just get a real heavy feeling in my chest if i eat too much.

I have the realize band with 3.5 cc fill so far.

Thanksgiving will be interesting as we all know in the past just eat till your sick!! Won't be doin that this year. Thank god i am not cooking this year. Just gonna eat and run. Hope you all have a great day!

Hey Chacka , I am alomost exactly like u ! Do you think you need another fill ? I only got stuck once . I am totally at a plataeu. I lost some weight while sick , but gained it back and have been the same .. when are we up for another fill ? I had mine nov 6 . surgery sept 29 .. take care girl
