My journey

I was banded on 5/20 starting weight was 336 now 287 it's a tough not eating but this is the best choice I have made. I have had 1 tightening so far but still feel little to no restriction when should I start feeling restriction or full with very little food ?

If you don't feel the restriction, go back and get another fill. If your Doctor allows, keep going back every few weeks or so until you start to feel it.

This restriction should be immediate. My doctor would make me drink 8 oz of Water before I leave his office to make sure I was not too tight. I felt it immediately, but was sure it went down within 30 mins.

I love that feeling~

Glad you have the appointment.

I'm in the chat room if you want to chat. i'm afraid Alex will take it away again if we don't use it.

There is a tab under the PATIENTS tab.
