Does this band work!??

I typically feel restriction in the morning so ill have a yogurt or Protein Shake to avoid any complications but by lunch I feel none. I made chicken salad today with carrots and celery sticks with light mayo. I brought veggie sticks ( they are kind of like chips made w veggies) as a snack bc usually I'm still really hungry after lunch. I also have 5-6 hours between lunch and dinner. I work at a summer camp for autistic children and we don't have breaks we eat with the children which is difficult. Dinner is usually chicken or fish with veggies. I will request the fluoroscopy I would like see what's going on.

I'm beginning to lose hope. I have 11cc in my 12cc band and I can still eat solids like chicken with very little restriction. I had a low bmi of 30 and I have lost 12 lbs from April when I was on liquids only and kept that off. Since then' date=' no weight loss just some gain that I recently lost with extensive exercise. I'm going to call tomorrow and see about another fill or other options. My surgeon told me my stomach is super tiny and my band needs to be super tight but I only have 1 more cc before its filled! I spent alot of money and I'm beginning to wonder if I made the right choice. With healthy food choices, I'm still over eating because I'm hungry... Anyone else having similar issues or have advice!? My dr takes the Fluid out each time and shows me to assure its all there and there is no leak![/quote']
