  11. Pandagirl, hi i had my lapband on March 21, 2007. I was not hungry, but you need to remember that we have an addiction to food and we may think that we are hungry out of habit. I had my 2nd fill and will receive my 3rd one in a couple of weeks. Ive lost 72lbs and by now if i didnt have the band i would of quit and started gaining again. but good luck with your band and i wish you success. kimslilstang
