I get my 3rd fill on the 3rd and still not losing. I think my body just can't lose weight!i started at 277 had surgery on sept 12th 2012 and as of today I'm 255.cant seem to get moving again.

How many cc's are you getting each fill?? My dr was pretty agressive, but I know not all are. I got 1.4 on my first fill and close to 1 each fill after. I am guessing you just don't have any good restircition yet. You will get there and then it will start melting off. Are you able to eat more that what you should?

I had my first fill today, 3cc. The Dr said, "I know your weight loss was all you and I promise you that soon the band will kick in and help". He also said on average most restriction comes between 4-7.5 cc.

Are you getting in your protein first and drinking a lot of water?

Hang in there it will begin to work with you!

When I started 4/12 I was 224lb and the day of surgery I was 211lbs in 3weeks after surgery Iam 207lb Monday I go for my first fill I don't think I loss enough

I'm at 4.5cc.sometimes I can eat like what I did before it feels like and some days I feel like I eat very little.

Are you logging what you eat? Eating only 1 cup? Protein first?

I'm sure another fill should help, maybe get you in that green zone.

I have a ? About the one cup.so if you having a boiled egg for breakfast how do you know If its one cup?

Or how do you know what a cup is with your protein first?

They say actually to compress it into a cup. When it comes to meat I always make it 3 oz and then add 1/4 c veggies & 1/4 good carbs. Most the time the Protein fills me before I can get to the veggies & fruit. But they say eat your protein first. Hope that helps!

When I'm eating Greek yogurt or ff cottage cheese, low fat cheese as a protein I just measure in a cup.
