First fill was on June 11th, 2009

Had my first fill and it took all of 5 minutes. Laid down on the table, got stuck and 4cc's were put into my empty band. It was explained that 3 cc's probably went to the tube ad a little to the actual band. Still do not feel restricted. Can eat almost anything but I'm watching calories and quantity. Trying to stay at 1200 calories and 90 grams of protein. Walking 30 minutes per day at least 4 days during the week. The weekends, I'm busy with things around the house.

I have a call into the Doc's office to see if I can step up my next appt.

hi, get my first fill on the 25th and hope i can tell a difference for most people i talk too says you can tell it and helps control your eating. I am starting to want to eat more and i hope i can get it under control but i am also pumping up my exercise i walk about 3 miles a day and swim about an half an hour and do some house work when needed and sometimes walk a small walk in the evenings. so hang in there and it will work out.

I didn't feel any restriction on the first fill so I move my second fill up by 3 weeks. I had my second fill on June 10th. Man alive, I can feel the restriction now... Liquids are no problem, but solids are a different story. I really have to eat slow, tiny, tiny bits, and chew, chew, chew... Best of luck to you...
