I read this article early on in my journey and it really changed, for the better, the way I view restriction. I highly reccommend it!

That was an awesome article. I needed to read it. I've now printed it and will refer to it often. I know this band is a tool, but find myself wondering occassionally, why I can eat as much as I can? Isn't the band working. Frustrating really. This article is a wake up call for me to be more accountable to the band not the other way around.

Someone shared it with me after I was complaining about no restriction. I've gotten my 3rd fill and have been losing but was upset that it' the weight loss was slowing down. My surgeon is very conservative about fills so when this person shared thus article I understood a lot more about the band. I will take heed and not eat more because I can and be thankful I'm not dealing with being too tight or PB -ING Glad it helps you all as well.
