Hope everyone is doing well...for those who had their first fill...any restriction! How many CC,s?

I had my first fill today of 2ccs. It hurt more than I expected, but it wasn't horrible. I can tell it is helping me feel restriction already, so that is great!! I am ready to lose some weight now!!

I had my first fill on Tuesday and I'm too full! I have to go back tomorrow to get it readjusted. I had my first "stuck" experiences. Yuck. I also have water that "gurgles' in my throat when I try to drink. Is that a common symptom of overfills? Not looking forward to that needle again!!

I was banded on 03/06. I had my first fill of 2 CC's on 4/04. I am just now getting back to where I can eat salads because of not being able to get the lettuce down. I am down total of 43 lbs and quite excited. I go back on 05/02 for another fill and hopefully she will tell me I can increase my exercising. So far just walking is all she wants me to do.

i was banded on march 21 and have not had my first fill yet. i will on May 21. does the needle hurt that badly???

and right i don't have any restrictions.is it common to have alot of them after a fill

Ditto! I am down 30 but nothing since a month ago. Still not satisfied after eating ..got another full Thursday ..hoping I can get up to 7-8 cc

Ladies, the only thing I can say is that I have learned to listen to my body. I eat slow, and when I know longer feel hungry I stop eating. I also do not get a large plate, when I eat with my family I use a small plate, like that of a saucer really. I only allow my self to have a table spoon of sides and a piece of meat that is the size of my hand. I use the myfitnesspal on my iphone to track my Protein, sugar, calories and carbs along with my exercise activity. This really seems to help alot. Just today I go the ok to lift and do whatever excersises I wanted which is great because my husband is wanting to start playing rackett ball at one of the local gyms and I can't wait.

You ladies are doing awesome don't get discouraged but listen to your body and don't eat the things that you have been instructed not to eat my your dietician, no breads, rice, oatmeal, corn or drink carbinated beverages or caffeine...etc, etc.
