Stuck with no metabolism

I had my surgery 7 years ago and it was very successful. I went from over 300 to 200. At some point I was having terrible heartburn and they had to take all my fluid out. I gained 50 pounds in 50 pounds in 4 months. Once I started getting fills I was able to get back down to 200. Last spring, I once again had to have the fluid removed for almost 6 months and again gained 50-60 pounds. I have my fluid again but this time I am not losing any weight. I am maintaining. I am as full as I can go as I am eating the appropriate amount and am not hungry and even now get periodic heartburn and certainly don't want to go back to no fluid and gain more weight and end up back where I was 7 years ago. How do I jumpstart my metabolism?

I have seen others suggest 3 days of protein drinks 3x a day to reset your band...
Please tell me if this works if you do decide to try it.
Best of luck.
You've done it twice. You can do it again and get back to where you are comfortable.
