Sibom,
I am sorry to hear that you are struggling. I was banded on May 5th 2010 as well, and have lost 28lbs so far. I have been having a hard time staying full. I had my first fill June 14th, and did not get much restriction with it. I go for my second today. Hang in there, keep at it. It can only get better with each fill! Good luck to all!
Heidi
