Finally at sweet spot again!

It has taken me more than a year to get to my sweet spot again. I have had fills and unfills numerous times. I PB frequently then gain weight. I have a very fickle band. 3.2 was too much, then 3.0 was too little, then .2 was too little and on and one. Funny thing is now I am at 3.23 and haven't PBd once. I eat really slow and small bites. He said on my loose days I should just eat more and on my tight days eat less. That makes sense. I am down 2 lbs. My goal is another 20 lbs with a stretch goal of 15 more. I now love my band again. I am so glad I've been patient. I have a great surgeon too. I go in for a barrium swallow on Wednesday just to make sure things are okay.:biggrin2:

The band is so fickle. It is either too tight or too loose. I never know. Sometimes things go down, yet at other times-oh no!! I will have my two year anniversary on August 30th. and I still cannot eat chicken. Boy do I miss chicken. Continued success. Be well.

Thanks for the posts guys. I truly can tell you I don't understand the band. I was at 3.2 and I was too tight to liquids. Then I was at 2.9 and too lose, then 3.12 and too loose, then 3.18 and too loose. Now I'm at 3.23 and fine. I can do liquids fine. What is up with that. 3.2 bad, now 3.23 good.
