I was banded 7/31/12 and I have lost 53ish pounds. I exercise on a regular basis. I have had 2 fills, however I'm starting to wonder if I need another fill. I have started to be hungry between meals. I'm not sure if I need the fill or just motivation and will power. Any advise?

Congrats on your loss!

It could be that you do need one.

For me, motivation and willpower could only last so long....thats why every time I dieted in the past, I'd eventually gain more than I lost. I lost that willpower/motivation. Now...I have an adjustable band. And its working just as I had hoped for it to now.

Best wishes for your continued success!

Thanks! That's kind of what I've been thinking. The only positive in right now is that I've been maintaining my weight.

Yea, one of the reasons I'm getting the band is in hopes that I don't have to struggle with having will power and being hungry all the time. Like catfish said, sounds like you may need a feel if you are getting hungry in between meals. At least that's what I've been taught. Good luck
