I was banded May 30, 2006. I can relate so much to what everyone is saying. I had my first fill 2 weeks ago but have not noticed much difference. I may not be as hungery as I was following the surgery. I am really looking forward to my next fill. I know restriction will come!!

Thanks for your advice. I'll be more patient & call my doc on Monday to see about another fill.

I'm new to this forum and a pretty new bander. I was banded on May 30, 2006. I have lost about 35 lbs. I have had a fill of 1cc about 2 wks ago, but still do not feel any different. I can eat anything & I rarely get full. I try to stick to 1/2 cup to 1 cup of food per meal but I'm never satisfied. I cut out carbs & soda & eat alot of protein each day. I am very pleased with my weight loss but I feel I've done it through willpower & dieting, without much help from the band. Can I get another fill soon? Will I ever feel the restriction I've heard about?
