Today was my first post-op doctor's appointment. I was banded on 12-22-11. He asked me how I was feeling and I told him I was feeling good. He asked me how eating was going this past week and I told him that honestly I was feeling more hungry and that I felt I was eating more than I should. He looked at my food log and said I was actually doing really good and not eating too much at all. He asked me if I was keeping my portions low because of restriction or will power and I told him will power because I truly could eat more, but I was afraid of hurting my new surgery and band. He said that it sounded like it was time for a fill. So, I was given 2cc in my band bringing it up to 3cc. I hope this helps, I think it will. I will keep you posted.
