I got my fill about a week ago and I havent lost any weight. I get full easy ( half a chicken breast) I can eat anything also. My problem is Im starving in about 2 hours. I dont drink after my meals and I do eat the right things (most of the time) Should I call and schedule another fill?

At the risk of getting trounced by other posters, I wonder if you are a little too filled. Maybe if you could eat a vegetable with the protein you would stay full longer? Seems like 2 hours from 1/2 a chicken breast is a good amount of time, really, because it is not that much food.

I will be interested to see what other ppl post.

Is this ur 1st fill if so u may want 2 try n add veggies 2 ur meal 2 make u full longer n if that doesnt work then call the doc n schedule another fill. Ive heard it takes 3-4 fills or more for some people b4 they start eating less n have restriction. If I were u I would enjoy eating chicken while u can bc Im on fill num 3 n can barely eat chicken or beef. best wishes

My surgeon doesn't have us add veggies back right away, either. I wouldn't rush to add if it's contrary to the advice you've been given by the doctor.

My stomach capacity, too, is small. The amount I eat satisfies me. But stomach emptying occurs at almost the same rate it did preop; my doctor agreed I need another fill, earlier than previously scheduled. I will go in next week for fill #2, and then have another a couple of weeks later (if need be).

sorry I didnt explain myself better. I do eat vegies too I was just useing an example. Ive had 6 fills with my last on being a week ago. I eat the right things and feel full but it just doesnt last. I dont think Im too full cuz I just started feelin restriction with this last fill.

I agree with the rest here please try balancing your meals. protein, veggies, few carbs. you make your meal. It is easy you know how much room you have to fill. Good luck this should help keep you satisfied.
