    sugrbear got a reaction from lizb88 in 1st Fill - simple and easy - but I feel no different   
    I just had my 2nd fill yesterday, I was Fluid yesterday, mushies for 2 days, I have heard every response there is to this, some say they felt restriction, others were too tight, some felt the restriction weeks later, others felt no restriction until their 3, 4 or even 5 fill. Many of them still lost weight, some slowly, some didn't, etc so you are going to have to wait and see what your body does and it reacts.
    I now have 4cc and I don't feel any tightness, restriction or as some say, the feeling of food going down yet. But I am losing and I am eating the way I should be and feel great. My belief is that if I can lose steadily, have my fills to keep from feeling overwhelming hunger, stay on my food plan portions, and "not" be tight, restricted, throwing up or uncomfortable that is the ideal way to live. I have read post and met one person who has lost over 80 lbs with no fills at all. So you see it is all in your body, how you use the tool, and manage your new life style.
    Some of us will have to work a little harder at Portion Control, some at regular exercise, some at good choices, etc, I would exercise patience and don't live on your scale. Look for all the victories you will be achieving. Lost inches, better health, a glow on your cheeks, a happier outlook, less meds. New clothes, the power you have gained from taking control of your life. Good luck.
