I had my first fill yesterday 1.5cc. Pretty agressive and I'm happy with that. The scale had not moved in a couple of weeks, however, my clothing size went down, so that is awesome. But, today, the scale moved. I'm so happy. Is this because the nerve that signals my brain that I have eaten and am full is being suppressed significantly more and my body is willing to let the weight go? I hope this makes sense. Thanks for you expert opinions.

Probably not. Daily weight loss and gain can be a function of the body retaining or expelling fluids. You probably have lost fat over the last few weeks but could be retaining fluids. Any daily gain or loss of 1 or more lbs is usually just fluids. So, maybe your body is letting fluids go but fat loss is the ultimate goal.

If you're weight is lower week over week you can probably attribute this to losing fat but you should dismiss daily gyrations of whole lbs. If your clothes fit loosely you most likely have lost fat.

Daily weight loss fluctuations are a fact of life. Just take the good news and be happy. Good Luck!

While everyone is correct that this is probably fluid fluctuation to clarify the band doesn't trigger satiation directly it just allows the food in the pouch to trigger the satiation response before the whole stomach is full. So with the fill you should trigger your metabolic response sooner but the effect of that will take several days to influence your body.

Well since I wrote this, I have lost another 3 pounds. To be honest the scale has been stuck for 2 weeks, ever since I started real food. But as soon as I got that fill the scale has been moving down everyday. I am thrilled. I also feel as though I am in the green zone for now. Had my first stuck episode today. It was gross. Just didn't chew well enough. Thanks for your thoughts.
