Congrads!!!!! most doctors will do the first fill 4-6 weeks after surgery..i had my first fill 4 weeks post op.

i will be so glad when i finally get some restriction..get my second fill Aug 14 my will power is getting week some days.

Great tool i love it to!

Suppose to be forever according to my doctor

i mean months

wow 50 pounds in two weeks thats awesome!

Hi im 6 weeks post and have lost a total of 28 pounds including my pre op..i only have 1.5cc in my 10cc band dont have any restriction yet, but i work out almost everyday and only eat 1 cup of food three times a day, i do what my doctors says..i have no complaints so far!

so yesterday i started using it like it already...confused though because i logged my work out calories burned and they give u those as though u can eat the calories u burned its no way im goin all those caloroes..kinda confused me...any input?

thnks i just started to realize that this morning eating slow helps..thnks

I was banded June 18, had my first fill July 17, 1.5cc ive notice after i can eat or drink a small amount and seem to get a little short of breath, wondering does this mean im full? i really dont know what to expect with restriction but this is something started happening after a fill and input would be helpful..thanks

Okay im so confused with the calories intake i was banded on July 18 my doctor never really said how many calories to eat just to eat 1 cup of food three times a day...i work out 4 to 5 days a week and burn like 550 to 600 calories i havent beed counting calories but the food i eat i know is less that 900...i need help i hear u have to burn more calories than u eat to loss weight...now i have family and friends in my ear saying i need to eat more..im trying to lose weight , help me bandsters what do you all think? i wanta loss weight but be healthy!

Ive lost 12 pounds since surgery june 18 feeling good about that..20 pounds is awesome!!!

she only put in 1.5cc my surgeon likes to do a little at a time..seems to think its helps with not having to get unfills, im happy with it just wanta get to the green zone, and im being patience thnks everyone

the fill was very easy, the nurse did numb the area but it wasnt bad at all, and i know its goin take more fills to fill restriction...ive been eating the right food and portions on will power and will continue to until i get to the green zone..im so motivated..
