  2. Thanks for the advice!!
  3. Hi everyone, I just got my 2nd fill yesterday. Can i workout straight after my fill? I do crossfit and lift weights. Would love to here everyones opinions. Thank u!
  4. Thank you all! Its been really helpful. In a few days ill see if i can go 4 or more hours without needing more foods as i got the fill today. I was also wondering if i could workout pretty hard as i just got my fill today or do i need to wait?
  5. Thank you for the replies. Yes water goes down without a problem. And thank you for the explanation about the fill and the stomach. My other question is then what will happen next time i go in for a fill? Will the doctor not be able to fill me up? How do i get my stomach smaller?
  6. Hi I went in to get my 2nd fill. My first fill was 3 cc with no problem. Today i went in and got another fill. My doctor was gonna out 2 cc but as he was filling me up he said that my band was getting tight and some of the liquid cc was coming back into the needle and could put all 2 cc in it. He eventually just put 1cc. Has that ever happened to anyone? Is that normal? I though my band could hold 11 cc
  7. Hi there, im about to get my second fill and i was wondering if i can exercise immediately after getting my fill? Thank you!
  8. Hi everyone. Im new, just joined this forum/chat. I got banded 2 and half months ago and lost 25 pounds so car. However, the past 2 days i have felt like i have had no reatrictions. I can eat bread and meat and feel it just slide down. I have had one fill at 3 cc about a month ago. Does anyone thing that this might be band erosion or slippage?
