I am a rare case, according to my nutritionist :) I only had the band, no plication. I have also had no fills. My doc told me I have some Fluid in the band from the surgery, but he doesn't know how much. He is amazed by my success. I don't know who grins bigger during my appointments. All that said...my weight loss is slowing down, my appetite is picking up and I am expecting my first fill either this month or next. And, I am NOT stressing out about it.

However, on this forum, I am not so rare. There are others like me :)

Sillyaunt... wonderful weight loss!!! How many cc's do you have in your band and is your band with plication?

I had five cc in my band when it was installed. I have had one adjustment, had 1/2 cc put in and I am pretty much in my green zone and happy as a clam. I kind of wish I had known about plication, before I had my surgery as it sounds intriguing. Ah well, I'm doing fine as is. :)

Banded 7/1/13 down 87 lbs. Have about 60 more to get to goal but I'll get there :) I work out 5-6 days a week. I have changed so much inside and out and all for the better (although some may disagree bc now I take even less crap then I did ore band lol )

Hi there :) I was banded on 03/24/11 and am down 146 pounds. I lost 145 slowly and without any excersize whatsoever, because I am lazy. My body has refused to lose anymore without it so I finally began excersizing a few days ago and already feel better. I feel like I have got to reach the 150 mark by my 3 year bandiversary. Good luck to you with whatever WLS you choose.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
