Help; not getting full

I am not getting full after 4 ounces. I have tried to stop but then it is not fulling me up. I am hungry after about 3 hours but I try to do the right thing.

I got my first fill 2/5 - 2.5cc's; 2nd fill 2/9-1.4cc's; But gosh darnit I am still hungry. Not to mention my hubby took me to the Cheesecake Factory this past weekend and I did the right thing by ordering one of their weight management salads. But I ate the entire salad and still was hungry; I ate some of the bread; then I just stopped b/c I knew it was wrong. But gosh on my way home; I ate 1/2 of the slice of cheesecake my husband took to go.

HELP MEEEEEE; WHAT DO YOU THINK I NEED TO DO?

Well I have only one thing I can tell you based on my my own experience. I did not got any real restriction until my 6th fill. I was just patient with myself and my Dr. I finally got there and I am finally losing weight after hitting a wall. Just keep telling yourself that it will get better and nothing is going to happen over night.

The same thing happened to me once I was able to eat solids. I went to taco bell and ate 2 burritos and tacos and was like what the heck am i doing knowing it wasnt right. You will get to that sweet spot it might just take awhile. I have the AP large with 9.8cc in it and just got to my sweet spot.

You will do great!!!!

Sounds like you need a fill.

4 oz doesn't seem like enough. I have been told a cup of food for each meal. Sometimes I feel the same way. This weekend I had fondue and I think b/c the process is so drawn out that I was able to eat way more than I am supposed to so I called to get an appointment for an adjustment...then yesterday and today, I feel like anytime I eat something it gets stuck, so I canceled my appointment! I don't know, it is all still new to me so I decided I should wait a while longer before getting a 2nd fill.

Try to focus on eating the right things, I am sure you were given food options. You may eat more of it until you get restriction but you will be on your way. Even if you don't loose much at least you shouldn't gain. Best of luck!
