Hi all,

Please forgive my newbie ignorance, but I've read the term "reached restriction" in a few posts, and don't quite understand the exact meaning. Would someone be so kind as to elaborate a bit?

Getting banded in exactly 3 weeks! :thumbup:

Proper adjustment of the lap band is very important to weight loss and the long term success of the procedure. Reaching restriction means you have reached a right amount of fill to only be able to eat 4 oz at a time. It is different with each person and requires a different amount of fill for each person. It is also referred to as reaching your sweet spot. When reaching your sweet spot typically your weight loss speeds up! Good luck

Thanks for the explanation Jenny. And congratulations on your progress so far! Wow! :biggrin: :thumbup:
