My wieght loss has WAY slowed down... it's about 1 1/2 pounds a week.... is everyone having that problem? It shouldn't be that way with only 700 calories a day. How's everyone else doing?

You should only be losing 1-2 pounds a week even with your fills. Some people lose faster than others though. You still haven't had a fill, and this is just the healing time, so relax and let your body heal up! You'll get there, you are doing just fine!

I havn't lost any since the May 24th. I still feel SOME restriction, but not as much as the first mo. after the 1st fill.3/1. I was planning to go to St Petersburg Fl this time instead of back to TJ. MX. for my 2 fill. Any one out there been there- the fill center usa in St Pete? I really want floro, I hear she has it there. And SHOULD I wait till I fill NO restriction to plan the trip? I would like to get at least a 2 wk head start for air fare from NC. Any Advice?

700 is way too low for weight loss, you have to eat and excersise and it will come off. remember the band is a tool, and this is a life journey. I had to get rid of my scale, I was weighing daily, now only once a week, and I just check my cloths to see the changes.
