Fills & Restriction

Banded on November 19th 2010...I just had my 2nd fill on Jan 5th 2011 giving me a total of 2.5cc in my band.

Until this second fill I have had NO restriction, so I was eating all foods with no problems (over Christmas gaining a few pounds...Frustration was growing).

Now I'm thrilled to say I have restriction with only 2.5cc...I'm learning now how much I can eat and how much chewing is necessary to keep it all down.

The worst is if I eat too fast or don't chew enough all the saliva that builds up and often the stuck feeling along with the pain in the center of my chest...Really does STOP you in your tracks - forcing you to stop eating...Result= losing weight...YAY!

Since Wednesday 5th I have lost almost 5 pounds.

I can now say I'm lovin my band.
