Got my initial fill on Friday. Doc ended up adding 3cc to my original 2.9 ccs. Couldn't feel the jello or water entering my stomach like I was supposed to. Today ate a whole can of vegetable beef and felt nothing. Maybe I should have eaten the can itself!! I know what full feels like, anywhere from just full to Thanksgiving full. Don't know how much saline my band will take, but I see further restriction down the road. Next visit in 3.5 weeks, unless my doctor has her baby early! Take your vitamins and move your butts, friends, or you will get scolded by your doctor every time! Anybody else not feeling the restriction?

Azstonewall..don't get discouraged it can take a couple of fills before you feel the restriction as well it sometimes takes a few days before the restriction actually "kicks in". I know that sounds funny but that has happened to me before..at first it didn't feel like anything and then a few days later..bam..restriction. Yes...take your vitamins and walk or do whatever exercise you are suppose to..they will make you a lot healthier and make you lose weight a lot quicker!! Take care!

I have no restriction either after the first fill. Originally I was told I couldn't get the 2nd for 6 weeks but I called last week practically begging, and I'm going in tomorrow. I got 1.5 added to the 4.0 in there already for the first fill. I am thinking I have a 14cc band, but I don't know that; will ask tomm.

I continue to work out pretty hard, and I don't eat a lot. I just want the band to kick in a little here............

Drink lots of water, and get as much exercise as you can. Keep it up; you are doing great!
