My Dr. changed his policy and wont give me my first fill till 5/31. I had my surgery on 3/11. I get so, so hungry I find myself eating more and more had 3 slices of pizza the other day ( I took off the cheese) better then the whole pizza i would eat before my band. but I hate myself for it. I cant control my hunger. I keep picking. the last 2 weeks thank god I haven't gained any weight I started at 267on 3/11 now 226 and holding no weight loss or gain in 2 weeks. My Dr said he will not give me my first fill till 5/31 and to have will power and don't worry if I gain 5 pounds but I'm worried the monster will come back and I will gain it all back + much more after all I've been through with pain and $ for the band surgery. I try to not eat any sugar of fatty foods my family says I'm being to hard on myself I did't gain all my weight in 3 months so I should not expect to lose it that fast

Did I get screwed paying $27000 for my band surgery. what did some you guys pay. This price is for everything

The pain your feeling is gas from the surgery i had the same problem I thought I was having a heart attack but the pain let up after passing the gas walking helps

I got my band 3/11/08 from Dr. Michael Wood From ABMI at detroit medical center. I was going to get my first fill today 6 weeks post op and my Dr called and told me he has a new policy and will only be doing fills once a month and so don't come in till may 31. I will be 10 weeks post op this dosn't sound right. I've lost 38 pounds since I was banded but I'm getting hungry and eating more. I called my Dr. and he told me to have will power:cursing::party::cursing:. My surgury was $27000.00 since he got paid I feel he is blowing me off what should I do. I don't want to take a step backward

thanks Jack I feel better I thought I must have a fill 6 to 8 weeks post op.
