First off, I would like to welcome you LBT.

I guess before we can offer ideas, we need to ask some questions first. When was your last fill? Do you feel like you need one now? Are you eating around the band? Have you tried monitoring your caloric intake at a site such at Calorie Counter, Diet Tracking, food Journal, Nutrition Facts at The Daily Plate or FitDay - Free Weight Loss and Diet Journal ? Perhaps you could post a sample of your usual daily menu.

I'd say get in for a fill and get in a support group. Tracking your food intake and your exercise is all good too. Remember the band is a tool and won't work unless you USE it. Good luck hon!
