i have lost around 8 pounds since my surgery july 22 2008 and went in about 10 days ago to get my first fill and was told that if i was still feeling restriction i didn't need a fill. i am a little confused as i don't think i had any saline in my band at time of surgery and i am a little frustrated b/c i thought i would lose at a little faster rate. am i being impatient or should i have more weight coming off. i have lost from starting weight in march of 246 to 206 as of right now but most of the weight was lost pre band. I still feel some restriction but feel like i am still hungrier than i should be i have a goal weight of around 150 so still have a long way to go.any suggestions would be appreciated

i recieved my lb surgery 7/22/08 and di relativly well until the third week in i am being awakened at night with a terrible knawing pain in my right side would anyone know what could be causing this ? I have tried acid reducers, gas meds etc. and still wake up at night. It almost feels like hunger pangs. I have not had my first fill yet and will not have it for about 3 weeks.Please advise me if anyone else is having this problem:confused:
