Hi Gretchen! I am so glad to hear that your 2nd fill has given you restriction! YAH!! It's funny how some people feel on their first fill and some don't feel it until their 3rd or 4th! I definitely felt mine, but I am going for a 2nd fill real soon! I have done pretty good though and lost 5 lbs. since my first fill. It has been up and down though. I haven't gotten anythign stuck or thrown up yet...thank goodness! But I have learned that eating slow and chewing well is the key! It's easier said than done for sure. It requires some thought, instead of just eating on autopilot! Also, not drinking while I eat has been hard for me, but I am doing well with it now and think I have overcome that part! I have a lost a total of 22 lbs. so far. I would like to say its more, but I am happy all the same. I have not been exercising consistently though, so that is my next move. Can't wait to hear how you are doing!

Take care!

Shelley
