i was banded on 7-14 and i've only lost 15lbs and this included the pre op time. the first 3 weeks no hunger and no craving. but this last 1-2 week has been so hard because i'm hugry i try to make good choices and try not to eat as much as before but i can eat anything and more than i could in the first part of this journey. i go tomorrow for my first fill and i'm just praying this will be helpful. and i won't be able to eat so much and still fill full. i know that the first few wks are for healing but everyone on the forum seems to have lost so much more than i have. i'm not exercising as

much as i should but the morn. here in texas start out at 90 and my exercise of choice is walking i'm so ready for fall.

OK enough whining things will be better after tomorrow!!!:phanvan

Yep, it sounds like you're ready for a fill! Most likely you'll see a big difference. So hang in there until then! And a 15 pound loss is wonderful in a month--even if it includes pre-op time. Many people don't really lose anything in their first month so you're ahead of the game! Good job!
