  1. I too have no fluid in my band right now. Only mine was my choice. I got a flu bug of some sort and my stomach hurt so bad that I asked them to take it out. I am starting refills tomorrow. My provider reccomended that during unfill times, I should eat a palm size portion of protien I.E. chicken, beef ect, and a finger size portion of vegetables SIX times a day. Its a lot of time eating but I find that Im not hungry, and I have actually lost 2 lbs in 2 wks. Also, when I was too full, a long time ago, they told me to go on a full liquid diet for a few days to help facilitate the healing of the tissue. My docs office does fills under live xray, so I got to see first hand proof that it worked. It was really cool.
