Went for first fill yesterday, I am still HUNGRY!!I don't know how long it is suppose to be this way, but I have paid alot of money for this band and I have been hungry since two weeks out . I am doing liquids today, but tomorrow i will be able to eat soft foods. But my dr. will be hearing from me if I don't start feeling some restriction SOON!!!:whoo:

Most of us needed more then one fill to feel restricted. And will continue to need fills as we lose weight. It's a process, and takes patience I know I didn't have!!

So, keep in touch with your doctor about your restriction level, and don't freak out yet.

Thanks, I needed that!! I just want this to work. I don't want to fail again. I've tried soooo many diets, I just need this to work for me!

I got a fill over the weekend 1.8 and still don't feel good restriction. What's up with that?

I just got my first fill yesterday. It was a big one too..LOL

My dr said to wait 1-2 weeks and I should start to feel some good restriction. I already feel some, so I know its working. So far its been willpower, but that works too....Dave

oh my god, you got 6cc in your first fill? Are you able to keep Water down>? That just sounds like alot for your first fill. I am not a Doctor but still. Whoa! My doctor put in 3ccs. He wanted to put 4ccs, but said there was some back pressure.? Have no idea what that is. Good luck to you.

I though it was a lot too, but my dr said she doesnt do the mini fills that I hear about. I had to stand and drink water as she was adjusting the amount and when I felt the water slow down, she stopped. So far its good, but we will see in a few days or so when I try to eat anything more than liquids/mushies.
