Is the band REALLY in there?

I'm just kidding of course, but I just got my third fill today and I don't feel any different. I have the Realize Band with 6 cc in it. I can feel a little bit as my doctor puts the saline in, but afterwards I feel like I can eat anything. I do liquids for the rest of the day after a fill and then the following day. I just drank my protein shake in like 5 minutes. How long is it going to take to reach restriction and actually feel like the thing is in there? I'm very impatient :biggrin:.

Hang in there! It will happen. Keep working with your doctor. Everybody is different, for me it was 3 fills before I felt restriction. Since then it has been kind of fickle. Some days I am tighter then others. Very tight in the morning, get hungry around 4:00. Good luck!
