I had my 3rd fill Wednesday and wow what a difference from the first 2! With the first 2 I had very little restriction and now I have great restriction! I ate all but 2 bites of my lean cuisine yesterday at lunch, and then we went to a chinese buffet for dinner. (I know, I know it's the devil!) But I maybe ate about half a cup of food before I was full! I was so tickled, I used to tear me up some Chinese food. Maybe I am pulling out of Bandster Hell! lol:thumbup:

Hi, I have lost 30 pounds since Sept. 29th.

It was slow going the past couple of month's, but I didn't get frustrated because I knew at some point I would have good restriction. Just reading other post's on here and what other people had been through helped a lot. I am also a firm believer in it took me 20 years to put the weight on, it's not gonna come off over night.

So all and all I feel pretty good about where I am now.

You have a great attitude. Keep it up!

Isn't it wonderful when our band does its job? I'm hoping I've finally hit the sweet spot, but we'll see if this restriction lasts beyond a week or so <crossing fingers>.

I had my 2nd fill and am feeling some restriction. It is great. Hope it does not lessen too quickly. My eyes are still bigger than my stomach and my 'head hunger' is almost as strong as ever. Any help for that?

So glad that you're feeling some restriction! I just had my first fill and go back to mushies tomorrow, solids on Monday and I can't wait to see what kind of restriction I will have. I have about 30 more lbs to go until I'm at my goal, so I'm hoping that one fill will do it. It's been all will power up until now though.

My fingers are crossed for you that the restriction lasts :-)!
