You are doing well! Trust the process. Continue to eat right. Drink too much water (kidding) work out or walk when possible and KEEP GOING. Try a few more months and see where you are.

Your doctor or nutritionist may have some hints for you.

Good luck and keep posting. I feel this site helps a lot!

You may need several more fills before your body wants to change and not be hungry.

Do you use a food tracker? If not, you'll be wise to start. The data keeps you apprised of the day's intake, but, more important, it will show you if and how you're not eating optimally. You say that you're eating healthfully, but there's chance that you're not following guidelines in term of portion and all the rest. Next time you have an appointmet, take a week's worth of trackers to review with the RD.

The amount of Fluid in a band means little or nothing. The effect that the amount has is what matters. If 10 people have a 10cc band containing 6cc saline, not all will respond to the band alike. You may need more. No way of knowing, as you didn't mention your appetite or how much food it takes for you to feel that it's time to stop.
