First Fill just shy of 4 weeks

Hello - I am scheduled for my first fill 2 days shy of 4 weeks from band date. I'm a little nervous that it might be to soon.

Anyone else get filled less than 4 weeks from surgery?

Banded Oct 19 (Fri)

If you don't want a fill so soon, just call and make an appointment for another time further down the road. If you are losing weight, having good restriction, and don't feel quite ready, then postpone the fill. Remember it's up to you to measure what you need.

My first fill was 6 weeks post-op. I have heard of them being done sooner, but I didnt want one since I kept losing and felt great.
