August 16, 200421 yr I was banded on 7/26/04. I am down 14 lbs. I am noticing now that it is taking longer to get full and I can eat larger amounts than last week. Any help? Thank You!!
August 16, 200421 yr Most doctors want you to wait 6 weeks for a fill to make sure you are all healed properly but there are doctorswho will do a fill sooner. . My doctor told me I need a fill when I am no longer losing 1-3 pounds a week for 3 weeks following all of the bandster rules. If you are exercising, eating right, making good food choices and drinking all of your water every day and are not losing 1-3 pounds a week for 3 weeks then you may need a fill is what I was told. . I had my first fill at 9 weeks post op and have done real well with it. I have lost 1-3 pounds a week since then. I'm for the most part following all the rules.
