Well hello everybody , I trust you are all well and preparations are going good for the Christmas festivities.

On Friday i went in for my second fill. Another 1 cc , with the previous 2 cc in my @ 10 cc band.

All went well this time and i made sure i was comfortablly able to swallow this time before i left the clinic.

Now i am begining to feel the benefit of the band, i actually feel full ,Well sort off .It,s not the old feeling full ,sick ,cant fit anything else in feeling in my stomach.

This is a feeling of fullness in my throat type sensation.So i guess i just have to train that sensation to my brain to say that,s enough .

Any way , Best Wishes to you all Mark.:eek:

Hi Mark,

Just curious, did you loose any weight? I have 5cc in my 10cc band and due for a fill on the 9th of Jan. I can definitely eat too much in the evening!

Cheers Rose:)

I'm glad to hear you're feeling satisfied with the 3 cc. I have a 10cc band too and I go for my first fill on 12/29. Dr says he fills 3cc the first time and waits to see how I do before he does anymore fills. Hopefully I'll feel as good as you. Happy holidays

I went for my 2nd fill yesterday. I had no restriction whatsoever and was starting to gain. Anyway, he unfilled me (I guess he always does that before a new fill) and I only had .5cc in my 4 cc band. He said he put over .75 in at the last fill and is not sure what happened to the rest???????

He put 1.5 in yesterday and honestly I don't feel a bit different. Some people say it takes a few days to feel a fill? I can't imagine why that is.

Hi friends, Merry Christmas and a Happy New year.

Well here i am nearly 2 weeks later and i can say i have no change in the way i feel full after eating ,i,m still the same old pigger me.

Except now i really have to chew and be careful because anything bigger than a multi Vitamin will block my stomac, i know this because if i dont drink first and " lube up " the multi will become very uncomfortable and just sit there for ever.

Mark:)

Talk to you all in the New Year.
