Hey guys it's buxndux again. 5 weeks post op and down 20 lbs, most of which was lost in the first 15 days. Since going back to solid foods i have been surprised at what i can eat, pretty much anything!

Did you gentelman notice a big differance after your first fill? And did the weight come of easier after that first fill?

Hey Bux. I felt a small restriction after the 1st fill, but it took me 3 to get to my "sweet spot". Hang in there, and go easy on the eating.....you will eventually get to the spot where it gets easier.

Hey Bux, like plain it took me 3 fills to really get the weight loss going. I only lost 30lbs in 7 months but last month with my 3rd fill I have hit my "sweet spot" . I've lost 7lbs already this month.

Hang in there.

Funny - same here - took 3 fills to feel good restriction. Check out the Lap Band Fills thread for more info...

I'm still unfilled, which is working well for me so far - I know I'll get a fill down the road, but I really don't need it at the moment, and the flexibility in terms of what I can eat (everything, basically) makes life easy.

I'm basically still dieting, but with less hunger.
