Hi Jason, I had the same problem and my doctor told me that you're not going to have a lot of restriction with your 1st fill. It’s to develop the pouch, I guess. It's the second fill that should make a big difference. Trust me, I know that its frustrating because you want to feel the restriction right away! Good luck!
Along the line of drinking coffee....what do you think about artificial sweeteners? I've heard that it slows down the weigh loss process, but I for one cannot have coffee without my sweetener!
PS Gayle I love your quote about life being like baggage...so true....
