got my 3rd adjustment today

Hey everyone!!! Just wanted to say that today I got my 3rd adjustment. I am now up to 7cc in my 9cc band. After getting my adjustment this morning, I could (right on the spot) feel a big difference. I could actually feel the water stall for a couple seconds and then could feel it going through. It was such a wonderful feeling.:tt1:

I have lost a whole pound just since going to the Doctor this morning. I really hope that this time we have found my "sweet spot" and the weight will start falling off.

Sounds great, just remember to eat s-l-o-w-l-y and chew, chew chew. Getting stuck and sliming are no fun so don't let yourself get too hungry. Thats when I have a tendency to eat too fast and have problems. You will learn quickly whatyou can and cannot do, good luck.

Lucky you! My doc fills very slowly! I was banded a month before you and only have around 3.5cc's in my 10cc band.

I go in for my 3rd fill this Thursday.

Have you been losing slowly?

THat is so good! I just had my 4th fill on Friday the 3rd and I hear you about the water. Now I understand when they say, "don't gulp your water". I've lost 3 lbs since my fill on Friday (can't update my ticker because i forgot my password)

I hope this feeling lasts for a long time!

I was banded on August 1, 2008 and I went today for my 2 month checkup and he did not give me a fill this month either. I have not had a fill yet cause I lost 20 lbs the 1st month and I had lost 14 lbs this month so he said I did not need a fill yet. I am okay with that though. I wish I would never need a fill and could loose all of my weight with just the band restriction. My doc said right now I am actually running in line with his gastric bypass patients, but he told me not to get overly excited cause it will slow down now. I hope he is wrong though.

I'd say more of on the lines of not losing at all. I had no restriction at all until yesterday actually very little yesterday. Today, well it's 9:20 a.m. and I have been up for 3 1/2 and I'm not even hungry yet. Hopefully that means that the RESTRICITON has really sat in and I will start losing the weight now.
