I'VE BEEN STRUGGLING FOR THE LAST TWO YEARS OUT OF THREE. I'M SURE SOME OF YOU HAVE TOO BEFORE BECOMING SUCCESSFUL. HAS ANYONE STARTED OVER FROM AN UNFILL? IF SO, LET ME KNOW PLEASE! I WANT TO KEEP MY BAND FOR AS LONG AS I CAN BUT STILL NEED TO LOSE 35 MORE LBS. IT'S HARD, BUT I'VE JOINED THE GYM AND PLAN TO GET SERIOUS ABOUT IT NEXT WEEK. I'M GETTING TOTALLY UN-FILLED ON WEDNESDAY. LET ME KNOW IF I SHOULD DO LIQUIDS FOR A WHILE OR JUST HOW TO GET CONTROL AGAIN. I KNOW IT'S UP TO ME AND I'M STARTING IT OFF BY PORTION CONTROL.

Have you tried the 5 day pouch test? Many find it very useful in shrinking their pouch as well as starting over with the band. Perhaps it could help you start over too?

I have been very successfull but I haven't ever had an unfill. I just stuck to portion control and 1000 calories each and every day.

Good luck to you.

I have heard about it, but never tried it. Thanks
