You said you are eating like you did before surgery. That is the problem. You must change your eating habits for a lifetime, including smaller portions (no more than 1/2-1 cup total per meal) and make healthy food choices.

It's also possible (likely) you don't have good restriction yet. Have you had fills?

Btw, 37 pounds is a great loss. That's over 3 pounds a week. I'm not sure what you expected but that is a lot.

1. You should probably call your Dr and schedule an appointment to see about a fill.

2. Have you seen a nutritionist?

3. The band will not stop you from eating crap.

4. If you want to lose weight until you hit the green zone, you need to diet.

Last, you've lost 37 pounds in two months! That is great. average is 1-2lb per week.

If it makes you feel better my surgery was 4/20 and I'm at 21lb. I'm working hard but have no restriction. I'm not defeated as I know it will get there. I look forward to my next fill in a week and hope it helps a little. Sounds like average on this board is 3-4 fills to feel restriction. It's a journey not a race I like to think of it.

Are you serious? Is this a joke? 2 months and 37 lbs? What were you expecting? Sorry if this isn't one of the supportive type responses but there are hundreds of bandsters who would switch places with you.

I was also banded April 20th, and I've lost 10 pounds since surgery, and I'm thrilled. (For people confused by the ticker below, I lost a decent amount in the months before surgery).

I think you need to do some more research about the mechanisms that make the band work, and how you should eat to maximize the effect.

I'm sorry but I can't understand this at all.

Is English not your native language? If not, maybe type in your native language and we can translate it with Google?

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?
