I do liquids for the rest of the day of the fill, mushies the next day, soft foods the next day, and back to regular after that.

I was the same way... It took a few fills to feel anything, but eventually it had happened! My weight loss has been slow but still losing so its ok. Hang in there it will happen!

I have the federal BCBS and I hardly paid anything. Just a surgeon copay of $75. Fills for the first two years post op are free also. I did have to pay a copay on office visits prior to surgery. My husband just had it done in oct and same for him too.

I do, I'm at 10.7 and just got there. Took me a year of consistent fills to get there!

It took me a year to find the green zone with fills every 4-8 weeks along the way but finally got there with 95 pounds lost. Lost it slowly and have more to go and I did feel like you that maybe it was leaking but then all of a sudden i was in that zone! Give it more time...54 pounds since may seems about right. My doc says 1-2 pounds a week is about the average loss.

I have a 14cc band and have 10.7cc in to be in the green zone! It took about a year to find that spot! Slow I know but have still lost 95lbs so don't get discouraged!
