Hi, i got banded on 13/07/08 in Dubai by Dr Christiaan DE Bruyne lost a few pounds with the liquid diet, felt little restriction got filled last month 3cc but no change. What does thi mean? It is making me depressed. Is this normal. I really would appreciate any advice.:lovechoc:

Hi Mel, I read on here it sometimes takes two to three weeks to feel restriction after fill, hang in there you probably will get it.

If you got a 3 CC fill for your first, I'm guessing you have a larger band that holds around 10CC total. From what I hear it can take a bit longer to feel restriction with that band. See if you can schedule another fill for soon! Once you have restriction you'll really feel the effects of the band.

Good luck!

Wait until you have a couple more fills in before you get worried. I have a 10 cc band and have about 7 cc's in it and finally have restriction. Do not worry about it now.

Hey there... I'm having a similar issue. I was banded on March 30, 2010 in Memphis Tennessee. My starting weight was 243.5 and my current weight is 234.5. That's a loss of 8.5 pounds in 14 days. Most all of that came off in the first week. The scale hasn't moved in 5 or 6 days. That would mean that I'm on track for the average of 1.5 to 2 lbs per week but I'm a little worried too. I would just like to see some more progress.

I've been working out about 4 days a week so I thought for sure that would help. I eat no more than 1200 calories a day.

Stay encouraged. Keep going to the gym.

I'll wait for a more "seasoned" banded buddy to give some more advice on how it worked for them.
