Funny, I just posted the same question on the pg boards.  I am scheduled to go for a fill on May 3.  I am just ready to get back on the losing end of things instead of the gaining end.  I was on bed rest since 4 months and in the hospital on bed rest for the last 2 months...needless to say I am ready to let me band take over my eating habits. grrr. 
I am anxious to see what others have to say.

I delivered 6 weeks early a 5lb 15oz lil boy:)  After spending 2 months on bed rest in the hospital and Mason spending 11 days in the NICU, we're both home and doing great!  Mason is getting bigger and gaining weight like he should.  Now it's my turn to lose this weight!  It's tough to get back on the band wagon...I CAN do this!

Nicki, I saw your post from a long while ago that you did the hcg diet.  Can you tell me how you did and was it a success for you.
You can email me at [email protected]
Thanks for the info

For me, anything hormonal made my band tighten. So if it was time of month, beginning of pregnancy, and postpartum my restriction increased.

I think I had my band adjusted about 4 weeks postpartum, by then the hormonal restriction was gone.
