1st band fill

Hello, had my 1st band fill about 2 weeks back, 4cc on a 10cc band. Yesterday and today is the first time I had a problem eating, so much I couldn't finish because of the restriction. I had to have a protein shake instead of food.

Can a band get tighter or could it be just my eating habits are getting a little slack?

Thanx.:smile2:

Sometimes you don't feel the effects of a fill for a couple of weeks. It's weird but I don't feel the effects of my fills for close to 3 weeks i think and then i notice the tightness. Keep chewing and choose the right foods. If it's still too tight, call your doctor

My band also gets tighter after 2-3 weeks, same as you. Others always talk about the band loosening, but not me. It's happened that way after every fill I've had.
