Red Zone is NO JOKE!
Sounds good. Glad you're feeling better. Continued success

Concerned….
My suggestion is to call your doctor's office on Monday. It sounds like you're too tight. Suggest that they take out 1cc and I bet you'll feel better. Just stay on liquids the remainder of the weekend. Good luck

It's quite possible. My doctor and team told me no nsaids as well and I suffer with osteoarthritis and I've been banded over three years and haven't been on my meds ever since. I just use my Patches and they prescribed a cream for me to use, plus my braces.

Oh my. I'm glad you're no longer in pain. I agree, I'm glad we have a tool that is adjustable in situations in which we may need to have it filled or unfilled. Happy healing.

Hungrier AFTER first fill
It is weird. Right after my fills I felt as though nothing happened I could still eat if I wanted to but didn't. Sure enough after a few days or so, I would eat as before and couldn't because my food got stuck. That's when you know it's working. Keep following your doctor's orders and all will be well. Congrats on what you've accomplished so far.

So I've been thinking =/
Don't be sorry. Totally understand. You have to do what's best for you. You have to live in your body, not anyone else. Good luck to you.

In Denial: I was too tight, too long.
Yes it does make a difference. I've had fills of just. .1cc a couple times and that's all I needed. Weird but it's all good.

loose skin
I'm a 42 yr old lapband patient. I have lost a total of 90 lbs and almost 40 inches all over in two and a half to three yrs post op. I do have some loose skin but will not have reconstructive surgery to get rid of it and no, I will not be in a bikini but I do wear a two piece. Can't show my scars and port.

Nice, you look great in it. I'm wearing a coat I have had at least 16 yrs now. It's actually a little big but I don't care. It's practically like new. I totally understand how you feel. congratulations!
