  1. Hi, I had my lap band done 10/26/10. Easy surgery. Very little discomfort. I have played by the rules and ate only what was allowed in each time frame just as the surgeon and dietician instructed. I have had no complications. I had my first fill 12/02/10. It felt different to eat at first. I never got full. I have never had nausea or vomiting. I could eat all that I want, but I try to limit my diet to high protein, low fat, low calorie foods. I do not drink anything but water and some regular coffee. Is it common, that before you hit your sweet spot, that the "Feeling full mechanism" doesn't kick in? I have lost 38 pounds. Most of that was within the first 6 weeks and by using judgement and restraint. I get afraid that the surgery won't work or that there is a flaw that will not allow it to work right. Any input will be appreciated. Take Care and have a Great day.
