I'm off to see the wizard...

Fill Number 2 in 4 hours....fingers crossed this gets me a bit more restriction! I've only lost 4 pounds in the last 4 weeks and have this horrible feeling my doc is going to nag (he's a good nagger). I know, I know, the band is designed for 1-2 lbs weight loss a week but I still feel like he's going to give me hell. Wish me luck!

My doc says for the second fill he usually goes for 1/2 of what you received on your first. I had 4.4 last time, went for 2.2 but had to back off to 2.1, at 2.2 the water just sort of sat in my throat. So I'm at 6.3 cc in a 14 cc band, still lots of room to adjust, but honestly, if I just get a little more restriction I'll be happy. And no getting nagged at today, yahoo! Weirdly, though not hungry, I suddenly have the craving for a cheeseburger, guess that'll have to wait a while.
