Hi there! I had my surgery on November 1 so I am just in my fourth week post op. Lately I have been feeling quite hungry and I know that I have over indulged on at least four locations. I haven't really had any negative side effects from doing this and that sort of worries me. I don't want to over eat and I will stop, however, I am wondering if I have stretched my stomach? I want to smarten up right away and stop this behavior. I just hope I haven't done damage. I don't feel any different so hopefully all is well. Just wondered if it is at this stage easy to over eat. I was always told that it was not easy to overeat. Just so you know I have not had a fill yet but have one booked in approximately 2 weeks. Can someone please provide me some assistance. I really appreciate it.

you should be getting a fill soon. the band doesn't work right away you need to heal and rest aft such a shock to the body. I have a 10cc and now after 3 fill have 6.5cc in it and I am never hungry in fact I have to watch the clock and track my meals to be sure I eat enough. this will come for you but yu need to do the work and this is the time to practice how to measure and solect foods that are right. Clean out your house so there is not food there you shouldn't eat. pack snacks and shakes with you when you go out so you have the right stuff with you. make this eork it tske seversl weeks to learn all this.

Thank you very much Line Dancer! It sounds like practice and patience are the keys for me right now. Appreciate your advice. Hope you have a wonderful day!

I am 6 weeks post op and waiting to get my first fill. I can relate to being hungry!

Perhaps call you dr. and see if it is time for a fill.
