Lovebugs

I only have 3 ccs in my band so far and feel like I have no restriction. Food doesn't even get stuck AT ALL. Don't give up hope though, try drinking at least 75 oz. of water and see if that helps the weightloss. I not only count protein grams but calories as well. Writing down everything seems to help me not over eat and I won't eat anything unless I know how many calories are in it. :smile::redface::thumbup:

I have been reading other peoples messages on this website and decided to join today. I was banded on 9-9-08 in Des Moines by Dr. Cahalon. I was really surprised how much pain I was in after surgery. It took me a week and five days to actually feel better and I was able to take a walk. I had my first fill on Monday October 20th and my doctor put in 3ccs. We had to go down to x-ray b/c he wanted to be sure he was hitting the port(this was after sticking me with the needle two times). I still feel no restriction and am HUNGRY!!!!! I am working out 40 minutes a day and following the four goldren rules but feel that I am at a plateau as far as my weight loss goes. Any suggestions would be wonderful:redface:
