Hi everyone. I weighed in today, have lost 34 since surgery on May 27th, 64 since I began trying to lose in November.

Had my second fill last Thursday, and the scale has started moving again. WAHOO!

Congrats on your success so far! You are doing great! Before you know it you will be at goal:laugh:

Thank you! YOU are doing wonderful!

I had my band placed May 23rd and have lost 32 pounds since then. I am glad to see that I am in the ballpark with someone else. I was afraid I should have lost more as it has really slowed down to a pound here and there. Good job so far!

I'm feeling a bit frustrated too Tonja. It´s like I´ve been fooling with the same 4 pounds for a month. GRRR. I have lost an inch in my thighs though in the past month.

I'm right there with you. I keep waiting for it to jump start again but hasn't really happened but I am trying to tell myself that 2 pounds a week is good and quit being so greedy.

I'm there too! 32 pounds myself, and the same 2 pounds back and forth since june! We should be the 3 bandateers lol

I lost 33 pounds since may 2008 and 11 pounds since surgery june 30th but im stuck on 237 for about 2 weeks got my first fill yesterday 2.5 cc in 8 cc band

You all are not alone! I've lost about 36lbs or so since surgery 5/23.....over the last 3 weeks or so about 2 pounds!!! It seems when I restrict my diet more I stay at the same weight...but if I "pig out" meaning I eat a little more, I lose a pound! I think I may not be eating enough calories sometimes...and I have to step up my workouts but we're doing great!!! 3 months 30+ lbs....that's awesome!!

Nice to know I'm not losing my mind. Was worried did I stretch my pouch? But seems like we're in the same boat! Maybe I can get another fill next week. C'mon sweet spot!

I went for my second fill and my doctor would not do it.. he said I was doing well on my own to wait for 6 more weeks... WHAT?? had a surgery to be told to do it on my own ??? He stressed that there are only 10CC's and I should save them for when I need the other 8 I have... so i am on 2CC's Total weight loss was 42 lbs since surgery on May 19th... I can eat what ever I want to... I feel like I am on WW not lapband.... oh well we will see how I do..

That does seem odd. I had my third fill last Thursday. Think I am FINALLY experiencing some restriction. Keep us posted. Hang in there!

Is anyone having any trouble with "night time" eating. I do very well during the day, then after 8pm....snacks. I am definatley not eating as much as I did before surgery...any tricks/tips

Night times are difficult for me. I was encouraged to drinka protein shake in the evenings, if needed. I try to eat supper no lter than 6p, then do the shake around 7-8p. It has helped.

I just had .5cc put in my band today. I felt disappointed because I only lost 2oz from my last appointment in July. I have had a good amount of weight loss until I discovered how easily sugary, high calorie foods go done. I am hopeful my fill today will help me get back on track-especially because I am on a liquid diet for the next two days.

For what it´s worth...

Recently on Bob site (the trainer from the Biggest Loser) said eating late or snacking late was OK, if the snack was Protein. That it would jump start your metabolism as you sleep.
