  4. ^^wow... Everyone is different, it depends on a lot of things; what size band you have, how much your surgeon put in per fill, how your stomach reacts, it's really hard to say when. My surgeon told me not to expect much restriction until the 3rd fill but I've had my second fill and I have moments when I feel if I had any more restriction I won't be able to eat anything. I'm at 5ccs and for now I'm ok. I scheduled my 3rd fill for november. So it's really based on how your body is. Best of luck to you. Hang in there, it gets better.
  5. Congrats! You're on your way
  6. That's awesome. Good luck and wishing you a speedy recovery. Best wishes
  7. During my pre op diet I was allowed coffee. After surgery is when I was cautioned about caffeine. However, all surgeons are different and you will probably get lots of different responses to this question. More importantly, follow your surgeons/dietitian advice. But I think you should be ok with your cup of coffee. Just make sure you drink your Water too. Best of luck
  8. Awesome! Have a great run, I'm on W5D2. Keep up the good work
  9. I'm in the same situation. I cancelled my fill and rescheduled for November. I feel if I'm any tighter I won't be able to eat anything and I would hate to eat. Some say as you lose weight your band loosens up, so that's why I rescheduled. If you feel you are in your zone then it's ok not to go. There's always the option to get a fill when you feel you need one. Best of luck to you and congrats on everything Lala
  10. People are use to seeing us fat, so when we lose weight we don't look like ourselves to them. I say work your butt off until YOU are proud. Bump everybody else. do what makes you happy. Those that love you, will accept the "skinny" and happier you. Keep up the good work
