Had my second fill today Fluid removed to confirm no loss than returned and 4 more cc's added I misunderstood the amount that was added on my first fill I thought it had been 5cc's but the Doctor said that he put in 5 then drew off to 2, that now explains why I was feeling no restriction, the doctor said that my progress since surgery has been excellent a total of 41# since surgery and 71# since being approved. I have been in a kind of a stall for the last 2 weeks 220# but up one day down the next day. I hope this fill will let me get below 200 I now have 6cc in a 11cc band.

Doctor knows best

Keep your eye on those soft stop signals. They're hard to see or feel in the beginning. Good job!

You are doing great! My surgeon doesn't share the amount of my fills so I have no idea. But whatever we are doing seems to be working. Also sometimes when the scale isn't moving that's right when I notice other things, like pants too loose and time for a new size. Keep your eyes on the non-scale victories as those can be really motivating. Best wishes!

71 lbs down after three months??? Amazing!!! congratulations and continued success.

Hey what is a soft stop signal? ---no bad jokes please

Soft Stop Signal: Burping, yawning, hiccups, soft pressure under your ziphoid, runny nose, food no longer appealing.
