I had surgery on 1/15/08 and had alot of restriction for about 4 weeks. He put 3cc in 10cc band at surgery. I had first fill 2 weeks ago and he put 2cc in and I felt absolutely nothing. I went back a week later and he put another 1cc in. I still really feel no restriction. How long should it take. If I have 6cc and no restrictiction, and only have 4cc left to go, will I get restriction? I am not eating anything that I shouldn't no sweets, no red meats, more protein and veggies, but I was loosing 1 1/2 to 2# a week an now nothing and Im frustrated. Im walking most days. How long will it take till I feel restriction. How do I know the fluid is going into the band. He says it is, but I should feel something? Thanks for your thoughts. Diane
