OMG I'm so happy to be driving down for my fill today.

When I got this last one 6 weeks ago it was ALMOST perfect.

Sadly, it tapered off about 2 weeks ago and I've managed to pack back on 5 pounds from my lowest weight! ACK! I know it will fall right back off, but ugh, this is not the way I'm supposed to be going.

I even ate TWO sloppy joes the other night. And though I haven't PB'd, I've come close twice, both times on a hamburger bun. So, I know when THAT is going down it's definitely fill time.

It's a 3 hour drive each way to the dr, so it really takes up my whole day, but I'm SO ready!

Angie I'm so happy for you. I was in the same boat. The first fill was good for about 3 weeks then wham, plateau then disappointment then eating like a fiend. Yesterday I got my second fill and already lost a couple pounds. Though I'm not sure how since I was still trying to eat though the band was saying no. I think today will be much better since my frame of mind is up. Hope you enjoy that tight tummy feeling! :thumbdown:

Hope your second fill gets you where you need to be. I am still amazed at how well I am filled after mine and it is showing no signs of going away this time :thumbdown:

This will actually be my 3rd fill. Hoping its the magic one! My first tapered off fast, the second one lasted about a month.

Hopefully this will last longer, I hate this drive!!

Sounds like you are close to that sweet spot Angie, I hope it works out for you. Let us know how it goes! :thumbdown:

I had my second one this week and hope it lasts as well. Good luck to you.

3 hr drive for a fill? Wow.
