Don't beat yourself up sweetie. You are doing great. Just think, without the band you may have gained that 6 lbs a month! I know I would have. My eating was out of control.

Thanks Kim. I am sorry I sounded so negative, I am just having a "down"day. Thanks for the support.

I was banded 5/8/08 so 3 months ago today. I have lost 18 lbs since surgery so it averages 6 lbs per month. 8 of them however have been in the last 2 weeks since my 3rd fill and this is the first time I have had restriction. I am pleased with my progress.

Pre-op weight 214

Surgery day weight 208

Down 30lbs

I guess I'm averaging about 6.5 lbs a month. I just had my second fill on 7-29 and had restriction for about 4 days.... it's now gone again. Oh to find my sweet spot!! :cray:

PS Way to go Paula!!
