Question about 1st fill

Hi I had my 1st fill June 3rd. I was expecting to feeel a significant amount of restriction. But I don't. I thought I was only suppose to be eating a golf ball size amount of food....I actually ate a whole hamburger the other day, I haven't really lost any weight since the fill. Should I be feeling restriction? My doctor said to come back in 2 months, but I almost feel the need to go back sooner, any suggestions???? I appreciate your help!

call your doc and tell him and ask to get another fill

I didn't feel any restriction with my first fill either. I went back in 4 weeks for my second fill, and I can tell a hugh difference. Call them back...

My first fill was little to no restriction either. The 2nd fill was whole other story! MAJOR RESTRICTION! Probably too much but it's loosened up now and things are much better! You probably need to call them back and get a second fill.
