I got my first fill yesterday. The surgeon told me he put in 4 ccs. I can't tell if I really feel anything yet or not. I was only liquids only yesterday and I haven't really eaten enough yet today to see if I have any actual restriction. I do feel something, though. We'll see.

I had my first fill yesterday as well :smile: He tried to put 3cc in but the Water he gave me got "stuck" and I had some pain so he took out some and I ended up with 2cc in. I felt quite "tight" for a few hours after but Im not feeling tight as of right now. Definitely noticed a difference when Im trying to drink, I was only able to drink about 6 oz of my Protein shake this morning and I was stuffed.

I plateud for about a week and a half and didnt lose anything, but I got on the scale and lost 3 lbs after he filled me ! Guess they were right....once you start getting yer fills you see a loss !

i had my first fill yesterday too... the Dr. put 4 CC's and I immediately felt restriction. It wasnt a bad feeling, but its definitely different.

I am able to eat regular food but I have to eat it a LOT sloooowwwwwer because of the pressure I feel in my chest and around my band area.

I know last night I felt hungry even after eating dinner, but it felt tighter so i stopped eating. We'll see how it goes today. Im working on a Protein shake and am not feeling anything restricting it---yes I understand its a liquid and will go right through, but there is nothing different about it from before the fill and now after.

We'll see when I try and eat my lunch (chicken noodle soup) and see if I find myself more restricted.

You probably won't feel much restriction at this point. My 1st fill was 4cc's and while I got fuller a little faster I really didn't have much restriction. I have 6cc's now and while I definitely have a bit more restriction it's still not much.

Had my first fill today! On liquids for 48 hours, so then I'll know how I'm feeling.
