100 pound victory of my own!
I just read that now Charline and I can certainly understand why you are frustrated. How much of a fill do you have right now? Are you feeling restriction? I found Dr B to be very reasonable with the fills so if you aren't feeling it, I would really call again. At 10 weeks out, I was at 6.5CC where I stayed for a YEAR. Really, I would call them.
Do you know how many calories you are eating? What exercise are you doing? Sometimes we make the mistake of not eating ENOUGH calories. Could that be a contributing factor for you?
I would be really frustrated and upset too losing 8 lbs in 3 months so my heart goes out to you.

STOP, STOP, STOP I have to lose 10lbs in only 6 weeks in order to even have this surgery. Now I am really bummed.
BUT, that being said, I have gotten so mu*****ouragement from everyone on the message boards that I am nearly convinced that I can do it.
AND you can do it too Charlene!! You are doing awesome even though you don't see it. We are so hard on ourselves aren't we. I guess it is easier to sh** on ourselves than on others.
Hang in there girlie, I need you to stay positive if for nothing else than to keep me positive. heheheh
Love you all, Sugarbear

I was not feeling any restriction after 2 weeks- I had another fill today for a total of 3.5 cc. I will know if I have restriction in a couple of days. The girls at the clinic agreed with me that I have lost more fat than shows on the scale. I can live with that for now.Every time I put on a piece of clothing, it is looser. I also went to the diabetic clinic and the nut there told me I was not getting enough carbs to prevent hunger in the evening. Rinette seemed to think that I was not getting enough to eat during the day and advised that I get some carbs at suppertime too. I have been sticking to the low carb or free veggies on the diabetic diet. Both nuts advised that I have other veggies too.
