It's not uncommon for people to need multiple fills before having adequate Fluid in their band. It usually takes months for this happen because the band is typically filled slowly.

So, be patient. It will come but it will take time to reach that point. In the meantime, stick to your daily calorie allowance, make sure your meals are a cup or less of food, and make sure to get in all your Protein. (plus protein keeps you satisfied longer)

Best wishes

Like Missy says, until you get adequate fills, it's just another diet. I'm right there with you. I've had one fill and hopefully getting another next week. Hang in there, once you get enough fills the band will help you along, but it does take time.

He said that I need a adjustment some saline added. So I have a week to go! While I continue to do as he and you all instructed me to do.. Much love everyone
