I had 1.4 cc today for my first fill. Not feeling much restriction. Is this normal?

Hope my fill today goes as smoothly as yours, Amanda!

I get my first fill today also. Good luck to you and to me! I need more restriction!

Hi, Carrie and other August banders. I will have my first fill tomorrow. I need it as I am eating a little too much. Haven't lost anymore weight, but I am so glad that I got this band.

Welcome aboard. Good luck on your surgery! You will soon be one of us!

All I can tell you is about the dr. I used. He is in Denton...Dr. Mosier, an excellent surgeon. Good luck finding that JUST RIGHT doctor for you!

Congratulations!!! Welcome!

Hi, from North Texas! Happy to have you aboard. I was banded by a great Dr. in Denton. Good support group, etc. Welcome!!

I, too, am feeling so much better although I am stuck at my current weight loss. I go for my 1st fill on Thursday. Hopefully, this will jump start my weight loss again. I really enjoy this site!

Welcome...I am fairly new here as well. You are doing great!

Hey, don't feel dumb by yourself...there are lots of us out there!!!

Trish, so sorry that you went through all that. Hopefully, you are on the mends. Hang in there!

Welcome, Jill, Bjorkturf, & Wonderkidsmom. I am fairly new to this also. Being scared is normal. Just take your time, and everything will fall into place!

I was banded on 8-15, and my doctor won't give me a fill until the first week in Oct. I need one as I feel I have no restriction. I guess each doctor is different....

Keri, so glad surgery is behind you! Take it easy!!

Good luck and Prayers. You will be fine! let us know how things went.

Welcome to both of you! I am new here, too. You will enjoy all the info!

I agree!! That is not a good sign. I know you are dissapointed, but hang in there!

Hey, I say follow your dreams! If this is what you want to do, go for it. I think it is great, and congratulations for loing ALL that weight!

Yes, that would be nice. Seems every Dr. has different instructions. Gets pretty confusing!

I have wondered that myself.

Isn't is great to have that behind you?! You will feel better soon. Wishing you a speedy recovery!!

It worked...Thanks, ReneBean!

Thanks for the info. I didn't realize I needed to do that. Hope what I did works!

I had UHC also. I was approved within 2 weeks with no problem. Good luck to you. Haygal Texas:)
