Me and my boyfriend had our first fill June 6th and now we feel that the restriction we had is not there. We both had restriction before the fill. I had 2cc and he had 3cc put in. We both are not losing anymore.

I have been having this weird feeling under my left rib. It doesnt hurt but feels like a pressure and its against my rib. My port is down further from where this is at. Have you had this?- Banded On March 20 And Still No Fill
Thats great. You do not need a fill. Keep those when you really need them. Your story sounds very similar to me. But im just now starting to get a little bit more appetiate- Question About A Fill
I will do that. Sometimes i can go 3-4 hours between a meal but other times it feels that im getting hungry sooner and i need a snack. I think im eating around a cup or cup in a half. If it does give me one it should be a small one, think thats all i neef righg now. Thanks- Question About A Fill
I havent had a fill yet, i get one june 6th. I have been losing weight actually 4 pounds this week. It is taking will power and eating 1200 calories a day. Will the dr still give you a fill if you are starting to get hunger between meals but still losing. - Drinking Soda's??
