  1. Ya this morning i had a tougher time than tonight. I hope its ok and i dont need to take some out, i will drink fluids for an extra day if i have to, i should be back on solids tomorrow but...
  2. ya mine is a vanguard large, they put the small one in firdt and way to tight so they put the lg in, and now have 3cc's in it
  3. Now I think I didnt have anything in my band until my first fill.
  4. I had my fill on friday, no pain at all, just stuck a needle in me and with in a few min i was done, now its mon and i feel real restricted, i tried eating solids today and it came up but tonight it seems better, wondering if to much fill, she put in 3cc's in a lg vangaurd band
  5. I live near Taunton, would like to meet people that were banded, I was banded on 10/3/07
  6. I had my first fill today and she said I might not feel any restrition until the 3rd or fourth fill, and she just had me stick out tummy and felt for my port then stuck a little needle in to put fill in, dindt hurt what so ever!
  7. Hatmamma, same day as well, I could eat anything to, but she said might not feel restriction with first fill, had mine today, I hope I do.
  8. same as you kygal, I was banded on Oct. 3rd, just got my first fill today 3cc's she told me, I havnt lost anythin to for a few weeks, she told me to call if I dont see a pound or two gone in two weeks, she will put in more, if i lose I go back in 4 weeks for another "adjustment" as they call it.
  9. I cant wait for my first fill, I feel same as you, I can eat what ever I want, not the same portion size as b-4 but still feel hungry at times.
  10. I hope I feel some restriction, I can eat just about anything, but smaller portions than b-4.:hungry:
  11. what is it like to get a fill, my first one is Nov 16th? thanks
  12. I was banded on the 3rd, my first fill is Nov 16th, then I think a week or so on liquids, so maybemushies for turkey day?
  13. just testing, i added a tickler, want to see if I did it right.
  14. went out and bought that isopure, boy was that expensive, what do you put in yours, I tried strawberries thats about it?
  15. the hardest paert im finding is not drinking with my meals.
  16. im just about done on the mushie stage and I felt the same way at times. I havnt had my first fill yet so I think that has a factor in it, they say once you start getting the fills you will feel more restricted.
  17. Im the same as you countrygirl, I can take bigger bites, and I get my first fill on Nov 16th.
  18. I know where you are, I used to work with someone from there, im south of Boston. Had mine done in Boston.
