I can relate to what your feeling, on my first fill my Docter put in 2 cc's, I felt nothing and did'nt lose a pound. On my second fill he put in 2 more cc's and I lost 12 lbs in 6 weeks, went back to him for my appointment and he did'nt put anything in. 6 weeks later I went back to him and only lost 1 lb. He put in 2 more cc's, and now I feel the difference!

Be patient, it may take a few fills before you really start losing. The only thing I should have done is gone back earlier when I was'nt losing so give your Docter a call in a couple of weeks and ask him/her for a fill.

Good luck and hang in there, it will happen.

thank you slowdoesit,, i love this site, so much support on offer !!!

i wish my doctor had explained all this to me.... i am so glad to have you all aboard..

many thanks x

Just hang in there, everyone is different with there fills It may take just one fill or it may take several to get that right tightness, it will come just be very patient. I have had only two fills 1.4 CC total, and I am losing about two LBS. a week that's all they really want you to lose anyway. It will be worth the wait, I feel so much better, I wish you success, and never give up........... It's going to be a life change.
