Feeling like I have no band at all!

Well - I am 5 weeks post-op and 2 weeks until my first fill. At this point I feel like did pre-banding. I am hungry and do not feel any restriction when I eat. This is frustrating after all this work - but I guess I will just be patient and wait until my fill. Anybody have any suggestions or comments??:angry_smile:

Hi Deb. Do you feel ANY different? I have been banded for 2 weeks now. I feel a tightness in my chest if I eat too much and I feel as though I don't obsess with the idea of food quite as much as I did before. I DO however, feel as though I can eat more than I should and I have already but my body lets me know(it is more unconfortable) if I overdo it. That is how it is for me anyway. Good luck with your fill, I hope that will help you
