What is ur goal weight? My highest goal weight is 170lbs n the lowest is 160lbs. Im 15lbs away from my 1st goal n 25lbs away 4rom 2nd goal. When u reach ur goal what happens do u get unfill ??? Thanks n advance for all comments

I have the same question. any help would be helpful.:thumbup:

My goal is 149 (upper limit for what is considered 'healthy' for my height). I think for most people, weightloss tends to slow as you get closer and closer to goal so there is no need to take any Fluid out of the band once you reach goal. In any case, you would never want to take all the fluid out. When people have their bands removed or take all the fluid out, they will typically regain all the weight they had lost.

I know for me that I could easily increase my calories to stop losing weight if I wanted by introducing back some liquid calories that I enjoy (like wine!) or allowing myself to have some Snacks and treats that go down easy, but that I'm avoiding now because of the calories. One of the ladies in my support group who is at goal has a 'treat day' once a week where she allows herself to snack and have other treats she does not eat the rest of the week. She also exercises a lot so that is probably why she can do that without regaining.

My goal is 140. For my height I could go as low as 120 but I don't think that would look good on me. I am worried about regain so I want a little wiggle room but I guess I will know if that weight suits me when I get there. I have another 28 pounds to go to reach 140..:thumbup:

My goal was 150 at 5ft 10, and it was purely coincidental that that's about where weight loss petered out for me. Steady loss stopped at about 165 and it took me over a year to lose that lastn 15 - occasionally 17 or 18, lol. It just got slower and slower and eventually stopped.

So for me, I didnt change a thing - no unfill, no change in diet - although over time, I guess I eat a little more - and certainly I've continued to build on and increase my exercise. I still work out hard for an hour six times a week - running or bootcamp. It helps me stay rock steady weight wise no matter what I eat and drink.

wow I was just wondering what happens when u get down 2 where u want 2 b
