Finally A Fill I Can Feel

Good Luck! I've only a week and a half out of Surgery so I don't know what a fill feels like but I've been told that's when it really start to work.. I wish you the best in your journey.... I can't way to see your success..

That's awesome news. Congrats. I am just curious how much do you have in the band now? I got my 2nd fill this morning and now have a total of 6cc in an 11cc band. I hope this is it for me as well. I am on liquids until tomorrow morning.

Thanks for the great info. I have only had 1 fill and a few days ago I suddenly realized how much I was eating with out feeling full. I was really scared that I had dilated my pouch I could eat such large portions. I have been better the last 4 days because I am forcing myself to eat smaller portions and I give myself a chance to feel full. I still need to work on slowing down my eating. Smaller more frequent meals really does work! I am full and just need to work on not eating out of boredom or emotional eating. I love to eat and this is a life change I will work on for the rest of my life. The more weight I lose the more will power I have...I do not want to ruin all the hard work I have done. I am also walking 2 -21/2 miles a day, that has had a big impact on my weight loss. I am down 44 pounds with 100 to go, banded on April 6, 2012.

Congrats! I'm currently experiencing the same as you were over eating and not feeling full I go for my third fill next week so hopefully I will start feeling the difference.

Thanks guys for the support. Jim I have I think 8cc in a 10cc band. I know it's really close, I don't understand why it takes 8cc for me to feel restricted. I'm just going to stay positive with the 8cc getting me to the 60lb i want to lose. Good luck to all of you
