I'm not sure how I lost those few pounds, but I thought I'd better post it quick before I gain it all back again!

I am still struggling to get off the weight I gained in Vegas. I am still up 1 pound but I am going to do the 5 Day Pouch Test this test and I am hoping it will help get me back on track. I can still meet my goal so I am going to try very hard.

So, what happens in Vegas doesn't STAY in Vegas, but comes home on your hips? ;o)

I had a blast! It it times like this that reality sets in and you realize that it is up to us and not the band. There is always something to learn with this band. Of course, I've always known it is up to me to make good choices but after the initial weight loss it becomes much harder. I used to be able to eat almost anything and still lose but now I have to really plan and make smart choices.

I think I need a fill but I am going to see how the 5 day pouch test works and then make my decision. I hate being too tight. I've been able to lose without a lot of restriction which has been great because I haven't had any PB episodes. I am so scared of that first PB.

The PBs are not so bad - really. Once you know that you are having a PB and not a heart attack, it is mainly just uncomfortable. Nothing to be scared of. I have been debating another fill, too. I just have had two (for a total of 3cc). I have a standard AP band, so I think I have quite a way to go, if I want to fill it all up.

I just don't want to be in the situation of getting too tight and not losing because I am eating nothing but soft stuff. My big problem is listening to that little "stop" voice in my head. I really WOULD be full on less food, if I would just trust my stomach and not my eyes or my brain that says I have not finished the appropriate portion size.

Maybe just a wee tiny extra fill would help jolt me in the right direciton without making me too tight?

You sound just like me. I feel the same way. I also have the APS band. I have 4.5 cc's.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
