No my band was empty...my doctor didn't put any saline in during surgery...but I've been banded for awhile now. Like 5 months

Thanks everyone for your replys. I started on a NW medicine thar unfortunately makes the hunger signals iin your brain go off all theyime and slows your metabolism so that's why I've decided to get a fill...hopefully if I can eat less and not take in as many calories as I do just eating healthy it will help me get back to losing again..since the pill slows your metabolic rate down..eating less would Make it easier to lose. Right now I can eat a normal amount of food and had just been choosing healthy foods and that's how ive lost my wait so far..but since staring this medicine I think a fill is why I need in order to keep me under 1200 calories... I have to fight the hunger more than Ever now....I never thought medication could do that but apparently it can. But anyway I'm hoping from 2-3 ccs but what ever the doctor orders is what ill take lol. Thanks to evryone for your advice and input

I'm having my first fill on Monday and I was wondering what was a good starting fill, how many Cc's? I am a a about five minths post op and have lost a good bit of weight but I can tell I need a fill. Also after a fill how long are you on liquids and before going for my fill is there any diet restrictions. I'm a little nnervous because I don't way to be overr filled and I don't want to be under filled..I just way everything to go smoothly. So anyone who can answer some of these questions wwould be greatly appreciated. Thanks, monica

@ lap band gal... You look fantastic! Congrats on your success! I love to see other peoples success stories its always so encouraging!

was not*

If you took me saying i did it without a fill personally...Then you misunderstood me. Me not getting the fill was to provbe to MYSELF that i could do it...what other people do is their bussiness and i have nothing against fills... so i dont know how that became personal but okay. In regards to your other statement.. no my doctor doesnt put any fills in bands until five weeks post op that was one of my questions pre-op and he says he is different than alot of doctors and thinks it is better to wait.. so i do not have any fill. but like i said i was pointing fingers or saying that having a fill was un necessary or anything of the sort. I was just talking about my PERSONAL experience.. Im sorry if you were offended

Well thats cool! Thank you soo much! Its been a journey but definetly one worth taking!

im in douglas!

@ azhoselady! Thank you Send me a friends request and that way we can keep up with each other!

originally when i had the surgery my intentions were to get a fill. I mean whats the point of having the lapband if your not really using it right? Well when it came time to get the first fill..I didnt feel like i needed it and as time passed i realized that i was able to control my eating habits by will power and just making conscious decisions on what i put in my mouth. So at that point i guess i wanted to prove to myself that i could reach my goal without a fill. I wanted to prove to myself that i had the will power and determination to do this on my own. I know my way is most definetly not for everyone but..i guess its something i needed to do for me.
