First Fill....No Restriction Felt

schel · January 19, 2006

Hello,

I went last Friday the 13th for my first fill. They told me I have the larger band which holds 9cc. They put 4cc in and I still don't feel any restriction. My next appointment is February 16th. Should I call my doc and ask to come sooner? I'm not loosing and am getting so depressed.

I went in for my first fill on Monday and they also did 4CC's I too have no restriction. I don't think you should worry though it sometimes takes a few fills to get it right for your body. I have no patience so it makes it hard for me to sit back and wait. I have another fill in a week. Hopefully that does the trick.

Good Luck!

I had my first fill yesterday and it has made a difference not in restriction or not being able to eat anything in particular but it's just completely cut the hunger and interest in food again.

I would be happy to wait till 16 Feb though, you dont want to suddenly end up overfilled.

Thanks,

I just wish I was full like after surgery after 1/2 lean cuisine.

I think I will wait, I am going to join weight watchers tomorrow hopefully that will help.

My doc won't give me a fill... hopefully when he see's I haven't lost since december he will. Hang in there some times the fills kick in later on. I'm scheduled to see my doc feb 3rd and I'm really really frustrated b/c I have 0 restriction.... good things to those who wait uuuuh lolol.

I called and got an earlier appointment after my first "no help at all restriction-wise" fill. He did the 2nd fill 2 weeks after the 1st fill and then another a week later. I still don't have alot of restriction, but I "have" to wait a month after the 3rd fill. See him again next week and I'm hoping the fourth one is the charm.
