I just got an adjustment on 4/27/05, I have been hoping it would kick in soon. I had MORE restriction BEFORE this fill than now. I feel like I could eat nonstop! There has been NO problems eating bread, chicken, eggs, ANYTHING. It is irratating me to no end. I feel hungry constantly and yes I eat mostly solid Proteins. GRRRRRR. Sorry, just venting. I hope against hope it will kick in soon!

-Blu-

Maybe it slipped?

I dunno, thats what I would be affraid of.

I went through the same thing...my restriction finally kicked in tonight while chewing on some garlic broccoli. I thought EUREKA!!! Jumpin Jehosephat....FAITH AND BEGORAH...it's here...not as much as before my fill but its there nonetheless. I'm not going to fight it. It will kick in...take heart.

OK I hear your frustration - But you know the drill. Patience my friend. Give it sometime you will fell it soon. ITs a shame that it does take sometimes a week or more to truely kick in but it is there & its going to work for you. So in the mean time - Set your self up for a little battle of wills for let say 3 days (or two) you've done it before post-op right? Stay away from the frig & keep yourself busy busy busy- YOU CAN DO THIS & IT WILL KICK IN_PROMISE:0)

If another 3 days pass with nothing -well give your doc a visit if possible. BUT be carefull adding more saline right away. You've read the stories on too much restriction. NOT FUN. Best Of Luck. Patience is a virtue- BE VIRTUOUS:0)
