No more weight lost
ok so i am 3 months out and have lost 12lbs, i have had 3 fills and i finally have restriction, most people do not lose much weight if any until they have good restriction,my first fill was 3.3cc then the second was 2.7cc then this last one was 1cc so i have 7cc in my realize band and i feel restriction ......a few bites and i'm good. it will happen ,it is different for everyone,i get discouraged too, do your self a favor and don;t compare to everyone on here, some people just lose and others have to wait for restriction....like me!
you'll be fine just diet until ou have restriction.

Lori's right, don't get discouraged and don't compare yourself to others. Each of us has a different way we carry our weight, we are different heights and may have different medical issues.
Keep doing what your doctor has told you and keep exercising. You may be losing inches instead of weight at this time. Have you taken your measuerments? Sometimes taking them once a month or two can let you know if your body is changing.
Sometimes it takes awhile to get restriction. You can get restriction today and it can be gone in a week. Don't despair, we are all in this together and are here if you need a shoulder to lean on.

I'm like Wildheart, I've lost 21 lbs and my surgery was over 3 months ago. It's been a slow process for me, but that's what I expected. I'm trying my best not to compare myself to everyone else on this board. I'm just taking it day by day, meal by meal, and letting my body shed the lbs at it's own pace! I only have 3 ccs in my band, and I'm going for my second fill on the 18th. I don't expect to see to much difference frm that one either. I know it's the right restriction that is going to make the weight loss possible, so I'm trying to be as patient as I can! But it's not easy, that's for sure!!! Just hang in there and take it one day at a time!!!
iTS WILL BE OK Or at least thats what i keep telling myself, so i will tell you too! I have NO restriction and never have! BUT i am loosing inches inspead of pounds. I dont know how my doc will see no pounds, but I can see inches. It is very frustratin, but i did go get some new pants today and was able to comfortably put on a 20, when i was in a tight 26 at the beginning of this journey back in May!!!!!!!!
