Just wanted to thank all of you who post on this site. I just had my first fill and am in heaven. Finally I realize what the band can do. All of you have kept me "up" by posting and now I hope to do the same for anyone who has not yet had a fill. This thing really works!

What does it feel like? I know my wife likes to swallow food (not eat it). Is she going to find out WHY you are suppose to eat slowly?

Good for you! A good fill is worth it's weight in gold!

Your wife will definately find out why she has to chew!

Thanks Betty...and just for you, I have a '98 RoadKing Classic 95th Anniversary Edition

I am going for my first fill today also, with Dr. Cribbins in Plano. Guess I am just a little anxious, but am excited also and hoping to feel some sort of restriction as I have not felt anything as of yet! I had my surgery on 11/15/05 and have "teetered" from 19 to 20 pounds loss, had a few weeks with no weight loss at all, not really worried about it, it was supposed to be the time for my band and incisions to heal, but am ready to get on with it now. Everyone I have talked to has said Dr. Cribbins is not "aggressive" when it comes to fills but I hope he is aggressive with me, will let everyone know after my fill! :paranoid

Good luck with your first fill! It sounds like you're doing great already!
