I am nervous about having my first fill on Monday 06/30/08...I am nervous because with a lot of hard work as eveyone else has done I am having a hard time limiting myself with what I am eating...There are times I don't feel like I have the band. I am hoping that my "new" stomach didn't stretch.....I have seriously cut down my portions but I am having a hard time not drinking with my meals. Although I have only lost 15 lbs after the band I feel like I am never going to get to my ideal weight. Has anyone felt this hopeless feeling as well ????????

Yes Yes I am right there with you .I get my first fill the 2nd of July ...

It is going to get so much better and plus we are loosing weight .. To have that hunger pang gone is going to be wonderful ..I will be thinking of you on MOnday post and tell us how it went .

I am also looking forward to my first fill, July 7th. I hope to feel more restriction after that. I have had no problem eating just about anything, good and not so good. I will be looking for your follow-up after your fill.
