Restriction Or Suppression?

[Summerrain 520]

The band has suppressed my appetite, sure I get hungry when it's time to eat but not that raging hunger I used to have pre band. To me the band is like being on duromine without the side effects.

When I'm hungry and it's time to eat that half to one cup satisfies me till next meal which is about five to six hours between meals for me at the moment.

Thanks, Goalseeker! Have you had your 1st fill yet?

I went in for my first appointment to discuss a fill. My dr and I agreed that since I seem to be in that "green zone" a fill at this point would be unnecessary. I had 5cc put in at surgery and don't need anymore yet. I have read as you lose weight the band also loosens so I may need one down the road.

Thanks everyone! I'm getting excited & trying to be patient.....still waiting on my tests to come back.

I'm in disbelief with the small amount of food & being satisfied for 4-5 hrs......It would truly be a miracle for me! I hope to hear something this week.

Thank you again for the awesome responses!
