Sweet Spot ---- how do you know it?

I had my surgery 4/07; have loss 47 lbs to date. my doc just found my "spot" los 8 lbs in a month... but now I feel like I am behind 6 month in losing.. so should I have gotten tighter faster.... I had a stall for a while, but now, it is moving downward again. I still have 50-60 lbs to go... am I behind? I know that with out the band I would have loss much at all, so I am grateful. just wish I would have hit this spot sooner... now that I am at the spot and fillsare 3 month apart, what if I don't lose as much... not sure about this phase of the band..any advice... please post. Thanks...... 325..... now 278.

Well a sweet spot is NOT exzact science when u lose u lose fat around the band so hence u will lose your sweet spot over time I had about 5 fills to finally get to my sweet spot but I am on a stall now for 3 mos and I am scheduled may 20 for another fill. I have lost 57 lbs from april 1 and basically losing a lb a week which is avg for a lap bander, as u well know it will takes us 2 years to achieve our goal , But u look at the over all picture studies show that lap banders and RNY after 5 years are the same results.I go in after a month of no loss for a fill. Good Luck Lisa

thanks for the encouragement. I do have to keep in mind that we take longer. I have stalled a little and trying to get back on track. I didn't gain it over night, so I need to give myself a break. thanks for the inspiration, and focus.
