  1. Just wondering if anyone had this same issue, i am i month post op and and do not feel restriction thinking because i was unfilled. 2 days ago i went for my 1st fill. The d octor put 2 cc's. i feel no restriction. i dont know if that is normal or not, or if 2 cc's was just too little. How much fill is recomended. p,ease help
  2. Thank you guys very much for your feedback, I guess it is common to feel depressed after any surgery, I have to admit this really took a toll, the pain doesn't make it any better and is what feels you with regrets. Today I feel better, My wounds obvious still hurt and when I breath I still feel my left ribcage soar( THe port is on the left side). It is people like you that make us new bandsters feel better(emotionally). I feel better when I get feedback from people that are banded. I don't have friends and family who are so it makes it rather difficult to ask. I am still on liquids. Hopefully by Monday I can do the Darker Liquids. I want to be able to drink my Protein, (I would not want my hair to fall). Thank You Jakealta

What are you supposed to feel? i have little ones and feel really bad that i cant pick them up yet. what is recovery time? Any advice will be great.
