Congratulations. My first fill is scheduled jan 23rd. I am 4 weeks post op. Let me ask ya, before your first fill did you feel super hungry like your 3 meals a day didn't satisfy you and now the saline fill allows you to feel really satisfied after eatin your meals? If so how many hours go by before you are ready for your next meal? Thanks..

Ive had 2 fills so far and have noticed not one thing yet. Now I know it will come eventually but so far still willpower and it is hard every day but determined to stay the course god willing :). I havent done as well as most...I mean I am doing all I am supposed to and eating the right amts but just not the fast results like some on here are experiencing. I am happy I have had a 30 lb loss so far but still I myself was hoping for more by this time (surgery 10-22-12). My dr is very pleased in fact didnt really want to give me a fill on 1-2-13 but told him I was so hungry all the time.

We are all different but still cant help but get frustrated when you read someone who has had surgery 4 weeks ago and has lost more weight in less than half the time?!! But it is what it is and we are all different. Hoping for the next fill to do a little something :)

Yup, I was STARVING, lol! I am on liquids for a day and then soft foods for a day or two. I am scheduled or another fill in April. However, my doc said if I notice in the next couple weeks I am still hungry that I should not wait and come in for another fill.

Just keep up high Protein to stay satisfied longer n lots of Water. I'm eating bout 3/4 cups about 4-5 Times a day. Hope that's fine.
