  1. I had restriction until a few weeks ago. The problem is that I have learned how to eat around the band (mainly by drinking water with my meals). It's funny, I would never have learned how to cheat so well if I wasn't lurking on these boards. But at the same time, if the boards weren't here, I would have felt like an utter failure for feeling hungry and wanting to eat. Oh well. Hopefully, I will have restriction after my first fill
  2. Hi everyone, I've been lurking since May and haven't ever posted. I'm set for a fill-in this Thursday and I'm hoping to get an "aggresive" fill. Lately, I've been hungry hungry hungry and I find myself able to eat ANYTHING, so it has been a real struggle to stay (kind of) on plan (not really). Needless to say between all the 4th of July barbeques I've not lost any more weight in the past two weeks. I was just wondering, what is considered an "aggresive" fill? I have no idea what size lap band I have, I just know that I have nothing in it now. And how soon will I feel the restriction after the fill? Thanks!
