I am joining the January 2012 group. No recent posts but I hope u r out there?.. I was banded 1.5.12. I have lost 39 lbs. I still do not feel restriction. Next fill ( no. 5) is in 2 weeks. I have a 14 cc band. Not sure how much is in it. I try to follow all the rules, have messed up some! I would like to feel a little restriction b/c I can eat a lot!

I was banded on January 18th and I'm down 47lbs! I still see a nutritionist, hit the gym 3-4 days a week for cardio and weight lifting plus I joined weight watchers because I'm better at counting points than calories. Sure I've hit plateaus and have my down moments but the good moments are far greater. Getting banded was the best thing I ever did. I'm gettingy second fill on Thursday and I'm excited about it!!! Hoping to lose 100 lb by the end of the year and reach my goal!

Yay You! You are doing great! Keep up the good work! Do you feel restriction?

I haven't felt any restrictions. Occasionally when I do ab exercises I feel pain where the port is...my doctor told me to just cut back on how many I do but it's ok to continue exercising. I have no problems consuming and foods and now, alcohol goes straight to my head :-)

i was banded late jan. and have currently lost 30lbs. i am up to 7cc in my 11cc band. i just have to say i never felt restriction until this last fill goin from 6 to 7cc. before i was able to eat anything i wanted and now after this fill im not eating much. i feel like maybe im to full because i can only eat mushy stuff and sometimes that even feels stuck. i too feel like i dnt notice the weight loss as much as i wld like,but i have to say i wld of never of lost this amount of weight in 5 months by myself. i am more then halfway to my goal just need 25lbs to go.
