Hello,

I have had 2 fills and have another coming up in June 12th. I'm hoping for True Restriciton then.

My doctor told me that once you have good restriction you will lose the most weight the following few months.:thumbup:

How many fills did it take you to reach restriction ? Once you had true restriction, how much weight did you lose in the following month?

Thank you all...:thumbup:

i guess I haven't had true restriction yet! Sometimes I think I do and then I think I don't! Crazy huh!

It's weird, after each fill I always lose a pound a day for like 4 days and then I don't lose anything for like a week or two.. then I'll lose a few more pounds... and then nothing. But, the biggest change was after my third fill. It's lasted for almost 3 weeks but I go in for another fill next week as I'm starting to get more hungry again. I don't mind when my weightloss plateau's because to me that just means that its more permanent weight loss. I don't gain or lose.. it just stays there. I change my eating up a bit and bam I'll start losing again.

When I had restriction (after my 4th fill) I didn't lose anything. Fills don't seem to work for me very well. I ended up having a spasm and my band closed up on me. I had to have a complete unfill. Since then I have had some put back in, but I don't have any restriction now at all. I find that eating 5-6 small (well balanced) meals everyday and working out is the best way for me to lose.
