Hi I got my band November 10/15. Best decision I ever made wish I had done it years ago. I thought I had the

chewing down pat but not good enough. I learned that peas don't go down well unless you chew then chew more.

I noticed that I am not hungry in the night. Which is a bonus. And I fill up on very little food.

I had my first fill Jan 2/16. I did not notice any change yet.

Would love to hear from other November Bandsters.

I got my band nov 10, 2009.... So I think nob is a great month. Wish you all the luck

Thanks for the reply. I sure feel better about myself just for getting the band. I did a lot of research before hand and i am ready to make the band work for me.

I am a November 2014 bandster. Down about 75lbs post op. Good luck!

Hi. I got my band on November 9th. I feel it was the best decision I made also. So far I've had two fills. My appetite has been suppressed tremendously. The problems I face are eating slow and chewing my food. Years of eating one way...I know it will take time to recondition my brain. Good luck with your journey!

I had a second fill and it was to much. It took a few hours after the fill and could not get even a tsp of Water down. I could not get some taken out till the next afternoon. Now I think I will be good for a while.

Yes it is really hard to retrain the brain to eat slower and chew chew chew. I find I am not hungry if I start the day out will powders?utm_source=BariatricPal&utm_medium=Affiliate&utm_campaign=CommentLink" target="_ad" data-id="1" >unjury Protein but if I miss it I feel hungry all day.
