When my band slipped I couldn't eat or drink anything I could hardly hold down Water, it would feel like I ate a really big meal.. When it was actually a sip of water.. I would throw up anything I tried eating. Mine slipped twice.. Both times they removed the Fluid from my band 4cc the first time and the 3cc the second time. He tried refilling it to see if it would go back because it only slipped very little the first time.. But 3 weeks later it slipped again, they removed the Fluid again and I have some restriction still but not as much.. Trying to watch what I eat so I don't gain but I will see my surgeon on August 5th.. Hopefully we can do the surgery soon.

I have noticed it in my face definitely.. But I do look overall smaller.. It's a nice feeling to here my boss tell me how great I'm looking especially because she isn't one for giving compliments felt good.

Face waist n my boobs but greatful my bra fits better on the back but sad the cups are getting loose. When u reach goal I see Tummy Tuck n boob job in my future lol
Also I noticed my shirts are loser in the waist n thigh area although I have not lost this week I kno first 6 weeks are for healing but I like seeing the scale go down too

I've had 2 fills luckily felt restriction with the first fill.. I'm 5 months out and 60lbs down.. You will definitely feel better when your filled.. as for how they do the fill, my surgeon just inserts a syringe into the port and fills.. Totally painless

First fill today...Dr lol'd at me & said the smallest first fill ever.... .6cc . It's all go though. 30lbs down & I LOVE my lap-band!!!

Well you were all right thank you very much, my band was to tight.. Being only 6months out I should have only been filled at about 2-3cc the most.. I was at 4cc. They emptied my band completely to make sure I can tolerate liquids and I am now.. I'm going to Follow up at my drs office Monday
