Judy, thanks for the good info...I was banded on 10/11 and I have the new 10 cc band. My doctor did not put any fluid in to start with, so I have been hungry from the get go. I got 3cc's on 10/25, just 2 weeks post op and the first few days made me think, wow, this is going to be good, but now that is had been almost two more weeks, I'm just a hungry as ever...I appreciate your encourgement to exercise and it has been what keeps me going because you feel so much better!! I have wanted to rush this process but after listening to you, I know it will come and I have to be patient so my band will last a lifetime!!

Hey Jenne, I have just found this website last week. I, too was banded on October 11th and am going through all kinds of emotional ups and downs. I have not lost any weight in 2 weeks and have already had a fill on Oct.25. I have the new 10CC band and have noticed people complaining that they don't like the new band, but I was told it was the new and improved band and would be better, but I am just hungry alot. The mornings are not too bad, but I at night I stay hungry!! How are you doing? Terri (mrsivo)
