  12. Thank you for all the help. I did get my fill today 2cc in a 10cc band. It was not as bad as I thought it would be. Down 25 lbs! (Happy Dance!) Loving life and doing what the Dr tells me to do.

    You need to ask your Dr. I was told as long as it is as small as my pinky nail I could take it with no trouble. I take a thyroid pill every day.
  16. Why am I more scared of my first fill? I was banded on May 2, 2013 and have lost 24 lbs. How much will they put in my band? I know all Dr are not the same but was just wanting to know if anyone had lost this much and how much fluid did they get on the first fill? Thanks for the help!
