Did you lose weight? Perhaps you lost and your band is looser because you also lost weight inside where the band is located. That would give you much less restriction. If you're not in pain or having problems, I wouldn't think you're having a band problem. Believe it or not, weather even affects my band, is there a certain weather front in the area? Maybe you just need a fill. Give your doctor's office a call and see what they think. I'm sure they will have some idea as to what has happened. In the meantime, just follow the rules and, as hard as it may be, try not to focus upon the hunger. I wish you the best of luck!

Time for a fluoroscopy fill?

Did you ever get your TT?

12/25/11 I've lost 100 or so pounds ... Got my tummy tuck ... Had to get my band empty because I was feeling sick .. Now I'm almost back to my old green zone ... But only this time I can n do eat everything ... Help

Congrats on your weight loss!

You say you "can and do eat everything". Keep in mind the band isn't supposed to physically stop you from eating nor is it supposed to force you to decrease your portions. It will always be your job to stick to band sized portions and make smart food choices.

Have a look at this link, I think it will help: http://drsimpson.net/fills/Lap-band-eating/lap-band-not-restriction/lap-band-and-restriction.html
