Hello. I had the lap band surgery on April 1, 2013 and I have only lost 2lbs to this date of June 22, 2013. I have had 2 fills and it feels like I did before surgery. Hungry, hungry, hungry, and its making me so not modivated. I joined the YMCA GYM and still no weight loss. What am I doing wrong. Can someone PLEASE HELP me out. FUSTRATED and lost.

Everyone is different when it comes to fills. Some never need a fill, they have restriction from the get go. Others could get the restriction with any number of fills.

Like I stated, it took 4 fills for me. First one was 6wks out, month later my port flipped so had revision surgery and fill at that time, that was 3mths post op, 6wks later a fill and a month later another fill , which hit the spot, 7mths post op.

By following my Drs diet, I continued to lose throughout. Now its just easier.

I like that my Dr is conservative and I never have had to go back for an unfill.

Don't get discourage on the time it could take.

I kinda figured that out myself. Everyone is different with fills from reading all of the stories throughout the forums lol You think you read and try to know everything about lap band but there is always something that the books don't tell you and that's the different experience that people encounter. So know I know. I might need several fills or one before I make it to the promise land lol I do know I have not had a fill and I can not eat over a halp cup of food. Which is good I think. Thanks all of you for your input I really appreciate it

Your welcome..good luck Cassandra and remember there is lots if support on here. :0)

Thank you everyone.....Everything I have read made a lot of sense. I believe I will need another fill but till then I joined the MyFitnessPal yesterday and I love it. I was going to start fresh on Monday, but I decided no Im starting today. Its a very helpful app, as you all mentioned. As of today as day 1. I have had 1/2 cup of 2% cottage cheese and I did not drink till 40 minutes after which was a glass of water and so far I feel satisfied. just need more menues for the breakfast lunch and dinner.....If anyone would like to share, Im ALL EARS listening..... Thank you all for getting me started on the right track.....I will take anyones tips or suggestions and support. Keep it coming. Thank you again
