I was banded November 9 and I've lost 40 pounds. I already had my first fill and I dont feel like it did anything. I am still able to eat the same amount. I am also falling off track since we have left over holiday foods. Should they be thrown away?! I also gained 3 pounds and i feel like im not helping myself. Anyone feeling the same?

I have been feeling the same way. Holiday foods got me a bit off track too, but I'm regrouping and starting this new year right. Hope things work out for you. :)

thanks I am glad i'm not the only one. How many fills did it take you to finally feel the right amount of restriction? I currently have 3.8 cc in my band and i feel the same as I did after surgery. I had 2.8 already in my band from surgery.

I have 7cc's in my 14 cc band right now. That's a total of 5 fills. I'm not sure if I've found that sweet spot just yet though. We just need to follow the rules and eventually we'll get there. Good luck! :)

Just a tip I have been using. When I make my dinner at night, I make sure I have my proper portions and less than one cup of food. I then pack up any leftovers and put them in the fridge. Stops me from reaching for seconds.

Give it away or throw it away for sure! I have found, I just can't have the stuff in the house. I live alone, so what others want isn't an issue. I too endulged over the holidays but as of 1/1 I am back on track. Did cardio yesterday for the first time in a while. A new year, a new me. Good luck!

I was banded on 11/8 and also gained 3 lbs over the holiday. Threw out all the leftovers (cookies-mydownfall) yesterday and back on track. I need to start exercising but have been sick. Hope to start on Saturday.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
