  1. I had my first fill today. Surgery was 9/24 and I am down 16 pounds. I asked for a fill because I felt like I could eat everything. I was given 2/10 cc during surgery and today I was given 2 more. I felt fine in the office and the water went down fine. But now I am having some discomfort where I would assume my band is. Is this normal?
  2. I used dial soap and rubbed in a circular motion with a face brush. It took a couple times but it works.

  4. I feel the same as you! I was banded 9/24 and lost 16 pounds in a little less than 2 weeks. Once I got to mushies I actually gained a few pounds. I'm walking and still eating between 500-700 calories as recommended by my surgeon. I am very discouraged. I have even begun jogging and walking more but still no weightless.
