I got my fourth fill yesterday and couldn't be happier . I'm now at 6.2ml and don't feel hungry yet . I have been on liquids since yesterday and plan on till tomorrow . Have I hit my green one yet ?

if you can go about 4 hours between meals and not feeling hungry....I would say you are in the greenzone! I hope you are!

I found that if I wasn't hungry at breakfast time I would wait until I was, then my lunch and dinner would be at different times. Sometimes it is hard to get out of the thinking that it's noon time, I have to eat lunch!!

Hi my name is Becky and I am new to all of this, LOL! I have so many questions... first of all i was banded on Aug 7th, I have had no issues thank goodness, but I got really hunger (the day after my first visit post op) and dealt with it until I started soft foods this week. It has been going well but again am beginning to become hungry about 3 hrs after. I am dealing with it but sometimes am getting nauseated feeling. Any suggestions? I am really focusing on my protein making sure I am getting it in. I see doc this week for another check up...could it be that I will need a fill soon? Also I did really well losing the first 2 wks...now it has stopped, maybe 1 pound if I am lucky. Is that pretty normal? Regardless I am in it for the longgggggg hall and am very excited about everything. Thanks for any comments I just am so new to this and have so many question.

Michelle becky is right 4 hrs.btween meals is what you want. It really is too soon to tell cause your still swollen from the fill.

Hope your in the green

Good Luck.

Thanks guys I just tried eating oatmeal for breakfast and it was Growse so I

Tried some hash browns and let me tell you

I started having pain in my chest and immediately had to throw up after having like 5 bites did I get stuck it should i stick to liquids still ??

Any kind of potatoes don't sit we'll with me may have to weed then out of your life sad to say

I stick to liquids the first day of a fill and soft foods the day or 2 afterwards. Maybe you just ate the potatoes too fast. I still eat potatoes and never have a problem even if eating baked potato skin.

Turns out I had to get .4 unfilled feel much better now even though I lost 7 lbs by not being able to eat or drink in three days

glad you are feeling better. Going in today for a little unfill myself!

Thanks dolly hope urs helps too
