Hi Everyone,

Im not banded yet for a couple of weeks still but I am reading stuff that I do not understand. What does "sweet spot in the band" mean exactly?

There are other terms that I don't understand, like PB'ing. What is that?

thanks to everyone who responds.

The sweet spot is where your restriction is just right....not too tight so that you can eat almost anything you want but in small portions....but not too loose so that you get hungry between meals, can eat larger portions and you don't lose weight. The sweet spot is a rather elusive thing that comes and goes....requiring adjustments to your band (fills).

Thanks so much for responding. I appreciate the link also. How much have you lost so far?
