So I have 3 fills in now and have some restriction, only started to notice after this last fill. I find that I still eat way too fast (working on that). Man when I do it hurts like hell. I am a slow learner and have at least one episode a day. Christmas has been hell with all the cakes and breads. That is what seems to get stuck the most. I get one bite and then pitch the rest, pain has been a great motivator. I have not had a PB, yet, and after a minute or two of the most intense pain it passes. Is this restriction or not normal?

Bandster 1007: Any luck in the downward spiral of the scale yet? Well, look at it this way, if you aren't losing lbs., you're probably losing inches!

Hang in there, thinking of you (we are both October Bandsters)!

becky..you are so sweet, and thank you so much for checking on me.

i had gained 2 lbs, then after my 2nd fill i lost 2. so that makes a total of 2 since surgery. i lost about 10 inches on my waist, but it is still bigger than it was prior to surgery...so..... (it got A LOT bigger after surgery). the only other place i have lost is my face and neck...every one keeps telling me that i look like i'm losing weight..so at least their saying that now..lol...
