Today has been interesting...woke up and didn't feel particularly hungry. But as the day has gone by I've been hungry and don't feel much restriction. Won't get my first fill until week 6 - good chance I'll gain weight at this point. Although I'm still trying not to eat much and making good choices...I'm disappointed. I guess that's part of the ride?? Praying to feel some restriction!!

Most of us did not feel any restriction or satiety till we had several fills. For me it was fill 3 that did the trick. I understand the need or the frustration of launching the rocket to your journey only to find it may take a few months? Someone may have told me about this phase before I was banded but I may have had my rose colored glasses on and thought I'd be the exception. It's all good now though.

Ha ha! I guess I will have to make really good decisions and keep up sugar busters so to speak. And get to moving! I am going to do everything in my power to NOT gain any weight and maybe even lose!!
