I was getting a fill this AM and my doc told me he's finding bandsters only lose about 1/2 lb. a week even with exercise!!!Hells bells I can do that without the band! And I can't even exercise because of health issues so does that mean 1/4 lb. for me? Woohoo that's a whole pound a month. I used to have alot of faith in him but I'm starting to wonder. Besides that I was stomach growling hungry before I even drove the 1/2 hour to get home! I'm even more dissappointed with this whole band trip than I already was.

Going to complain.....see my main issue with band and with information about the band....wouldnt it be great if it could be consistant..I know i know its a random idea...but what if drs told patients the same information and told them facts that might be good to know for after surgery.....   I dislike disorganization and truely dislike half truths.....which i see from reading many of these posts so many of us havebeen given... I
I am a work in progress...perhaps never completed or perfected; but forever working to change for the better...

UGH, I stalled for 6 weeks solid.  Got a fill and it fixed the stall.  That's all I have for you.  I even tried the Plauteau Buster diet and failed that miserably.  A fill fixed it lickety split
