My name is Miranda and I was banded August 29, 2011. I just want to check out the site and see how everyone experiencing things differently. My doctor is not listed on here but his name is Dr. Benjamin Tanner from Louisville, KY. He is great! It's been almost 5 months since I was banded and I kind of got discouraged because it has taken so long to get properly adjusted so I can actually feel full. I just went in 3 weeks ago and now I am at 6.5 cc's in my band. I haven't lost a lot post-op but I lost more pre-op. I am hoping when I go to my next appointment that I have lost more than 1 or 2 and not gained any! I'm still getting used to my band, and I am not sure if I need a fill or not. I haven't eaten a lot since my last fill because I get sick I believe it is because I am not chewing properly because before now, I felt like I had little to no restriction. I just got a gym membership for a Christmas gift so I will be hitting it up soon and I am saying good riddance to the fat girl days!
