For some reason lately I haven't lost any weight... I thought I hit my sweet spot about a month ago .. But now I'm thinking I need a fill ..... Why is that ? I thought I was too tight , now I'm not so sure .. Can someone give me some feed back ..

Hi:

It's normal to be at your sweet spot for a while and then need some fill. As you lose weight you lose weight where your band is too. There are so many variables that come into play with your band.

Sounds to me like you need a fill.

Good luck!

When was your last fill? Everyone hits that wall! It's normal. Don't get discouraged. Remember weather has an effect on band as well. In hotter weather you'll find yourself less hungry as you progess and have your fills. Keep in mind your body shouldn't lose more than a lb a day. That allows your metabolism adjust to weight loss, rapid loss only will lead to quicker gaining. You should be adjusted every three months in beginning. Don't get frustrated don't think your making mistakes your doing it right patients will perseverance and results. Keep the faith and contact me if I can help more sweetie!

Only had a appointment a month away ... Now I'm scared ... A fill that far away

Feeling the pain...I go August 1, I'm in plateau as well...hang in there. This forum has helped my attitude about the long journey. We will get through this. In concentrating on Protein, liquids, less far, more greens, and more cardio to burn calories. I've got 50-60 pounds to goal. Good luck.

I got 20 pounds to go ... I work 10 plus hours a day ... I want to hit the gym more ... I just need to really stay focused ... Sometimes I feel as my band is empty .. Is that weird ? I just stop my self from eating to much ... And I tell my self I'm done

As little as .05 cc's has a "demonstrable difference" in the band. I had .3 taken out once due to illness, and when I wasn't sick anymore it felt like I could plow through a ton of food. Like I didn't have a band.y surgeon had me come in once a month the first year.

I just went thru the same exact thing...check out my blog here and u will see what I mean..I went back and forth..long story short 0.3cc's got me back at my sweet spot...I think a tiny fill will get u back on track.
