I found out I had 5.4 in mine, had no idea lol... now I'm at 6.4. Good luck

Great! I was banded the same day, just got filled 11/28.... I have 6.4cc in. I'm eating better and what not but honestly the fill isnt enough I dont think, it has not suppressed my appetite that much, only the first 2 days. Kuddos to you though

Happy Thanksgiving, I'm not filled yet, I go 11/28/12 so I'm happy bout that, but I will be for Christmas

hAD TO push mine back one day

thanks

soft pears, small apples, no peeling & strawberries

cheryl that is a good point..... Cvesce I hope they get u scheduled soon, Good u have a great support system!

I was banded on 10/24... I was supposed to start mushies, this coming wednesday but I started before that...I dont actually measure but I dont eat anything bad... I eat salmon (mushy) Broccoli, mashed potatoes, salads, and still drink my soups & protein shakes. I am satisfied with the samller portions because of teh protein I take in in a day, i drink plenty of water now as well. I eat every 3-4 hours, or a protein shake & a piece of fruit or something. I feel completely fine, like normal for the most part. i go for my first fill 11/27... I was also a self pay and wasnt required to diet for 2 weeks

I wouldn't not eat, I would just eat something extremely light (salad)

I created this topic twice, and I dont know how to delete on of them, I was confused for a moment looking for the other comments... Yes thats a great way to look at it. Personally I just dont think its anyones business. I definitely see your point though nevertheless, my husband is aware and he is the only one. I have battled with my weight long enough & have lost weight multiple times, so I figure they will assume, its just another one of those "diets" Im on & no one will ever suspect anyway. I just dont want anyone thinking I took the "easy" way out...

Yes I'm pretty open but this particular thing is different for me. Unless something serious (medical) wise happens & I dont have to say I wont

Oh no I am so sorry to hear that. were u getting ur fills within those 5 years? My issue is I just dont want anyone thinking I took the easy way out. I feel like I've battled with my weight long enough & since I've lost weight multiple times, I'm guessing no one will assume I had anything done, so I'm sure I will be successful as far as keeping it to myself

I was banded on 10/24/12. Scarring is minimal now except for my bigger incision (still a little swollen) Not sure if thats my port or not, but its in my upper stomach are a little under my bra... Good luck to every one my first fill is 11/27

I am also one of those people who will never divulge that I have a lapband, the only person that knows is my husband, & thats the way I will keep it for my own reasons. Anyone else like that? or did you tell everyone?
