Inspiring!! Well Done Sister!!

I have the Realize Band and had surgery 5/15. Had my first fill 2 days ago, doing great, and down 21 lbs!! I chose it because my dr said it has less chance of erosion and is a softer "more natural" band. Having seen and felt the two at my dr's office- I chose the Realize band. Good luck to you!! Blessings~

I just had my first fill today at 1:30. I was nervous too, but excited and ready. It did hurt some but was over quick enough. My surgeon ordered liquids for 2 days and then soft foods for 2 days. I'm happy about that. God willing I'll drop another 5 pounds. Hope so!!

Hi Everyone! I am 5 weeks out today and have my 1st fill tmrw. I am hungry between meals and find I can eat more than that I could just a wk ago. I'm hoping this fill will provide at least SOME restriction. I'll let y'all know!!

I was banded on 5/15 and have permanently lost 21 lbs!!!!! Yippee!!!!!!

I live in Beaver, PA. About 30 min from Pittsburgh. Was banded on 5/15. Lost 20 lbs so far and have first fill next week. Ready for that fill indeed!! We just moved here from NY 3 months ago but I think we're on opposite sides of the state. LOL!
