I was banded March 3, 2006.....first fill 6 April 20....and I felt really no change. I had little restriction. I just had my 2nd on 5/9/06 and WOW what a huge difference. I have good restriction, but no PB'ing yet. I'm giving it a few days before I try any solids because I can really feel that it's tighter. Even with my Protein this morning I had to take it slow. I may have found that "sweet spot" Banded March 3, 2006 Lost 26 pounds so far...

Congratulations!!! I had my surgery March 3 in Beaumont TX....so far its been great! I go for my first fill next week. I haven't regretted one minute. The hardest part was the liquid diet. I thought I would die.

I am very excited at this point. I had my surgery on March 3. I made it through the pre-op, liquid diet, etc. Once the surgery was done, I was back to work within the week, and now I'm feeling great. The liquid and mushies was hard for me. I hate to "drink" a meal. I need that feeling of something to chew on. Now Im finally moving to solids and loving it. I go for my first fill next week, so I'll update you then. I'm a little nervous about it, but hoping all goes well. So far, I've lost about 16 pounds. :kiss2: TX Country Girl Banded 3/3/06 Dr. Hahn

I was banded on March 3 and doing very well so far. In 3 weeks, I've lost 14 pounds. I have my first fill next week. I've progressed to soft solids and have found that I get full easily. At times when I get full, I have a feeling of tightness in my chest area. I have found that if I eat slower, this doesn't happen. The hardest thing has been to eat very slowly. I will update you after my first fill.
