Adjusted?

I had my lap band surgery on March 29, 2007. On April 27, 2007, I had my first adjustment. The problem is I still feel hungry. My ability to eat bread has significantly decreased but its every thing else that is posing a problem for me! I'm thinking I need another adjustment...am I right???:help:

I could get one every 2 weeks as needed BUT, every single fill I've ever had has taken anywhere from 2 to 4 weeks to fully become effective. Let me give you an example. I've had 6 fills to get to 3 cc's in my 4cc's band. My last fill was 5 weeks ago. Up until 1 1/2 weeks ago I could eat solid Proteins up to about 1/2 cup, perfect right? Well, now, 5 weeks after my fill it's fully kicked in and I'm having to go tomorrow for a slight unfill. So, it may take yours 2 weeks as well. I would give it a little bit of time and let your esophagus and stoma and everything get use to it and if in a couple of weeks you still need some I would get a little more. This is imho only though. Good luck.

I had 6mls for my first fill. I only have 2 fills included within the package price I paid for surgery. I can eat more now than when I first had my fill done. I think I might need a fill but the hospital keep telling me to leave it another month. Are you eating the right amount of food? I'm eating around 1200 calories a day now as my dietician recommended me too. She mad me keep a food diary and said she wasn't surprised I was hungry as I wasn't eating enough.
