i was banded on 04/21/08. my first fill was 05/19/08. i feel MORE hungry after my fill than i did before! i've even gained 2 pounds back. i emailed my doctor and asked if i could come in for another fill on 06/07/08 and he said yes. that's less than a month apart.

how often can you get fills?

I was happy to see this post and look forward to reading some of the responses. I am going through the same thing. I got banded on 4/3, got a fill on 5/19 and I am hungrier than before. I called today and asked to move my fill date from 6/20 to 6/9. I wonder if this is common. This is all still kind of new to me. Good Luck to you!

My first fill was a month after surgery. After that I was able to go every 2 wks, however I averaged close to every 3-4wks.

I was pretty much hungry till fill #4. My last fill in March has gotten tighter the last few wks & I had a small unfill last wk which hasn't made a difference, so I plan on going Friday for a bit more taken out. Little too restricted for my liking; enjoy eating my calories - not drinking them (protein shakes).

All the best!

2 weeks apart.
