First Fill After Baby

Hello everyone,

Brief background: Banded 4/16/2009, 8/1/09 found out we were EXPECTING! (She was a surprise, not planned so close after surgery). 4/24/2010 baby is born. 6/10/2011 first fill after baby. Now, I am trying to get back into the swing of things. Due to the situation I only had 2 fills prior to finding out about the baby, so at this time, I believe I have a total of 4cc's in my band, with relatively good restriction. I find myself hungry every 2-3 hours though, and am wondering if this is too frequant? Since it has been so long, I forgot everything and need to brush up. I am wondering if anyone out there has some good documents that may help with guidelines and meal ideas, and the correct amount to eat at each meal, etc. I am going to do this the right way! Any help is a lot of help!

Thanks so much!

Also, if I can answer any of your questions you may have, I am open!

Thanks a lot and take care!

Steph
