Hi Readytobethin I had my surgery April 21st 2009 and I had my 1st fill on June 21st and I'm not sure if I actually experience "restriction" however I have been eating less probably because I'm afraid of getting sick and I'm very anxious to loose the weight. However there are many nights that I want to keep eating and I drink the water that I didn't get in throughout the day. From the posting I've read the restriction can take time and even once it happens you need to continue to work a program that is both well balanced in quanity and quality of food along with working out.

If you aren't currently keeping a food diary I have found that it is very helpful and I would weight all your foods this has worked for me currently and in the past.

Good Luck!
