I had my first fill about a month ago. I received 3 cc in a 10 cc band. Sorry, I don't know the technical name for the bank I have, but I apparently have the larger of the two 10cc bands, if that makes any sense to anyone.

When I first got the fill I was pretty satisfied with little food. Now, about 3 weeks later, I barely feel satisfied. I am astonished about what I can eat sometimes. Definitely not like it was preband, but more than a probably should. I have still lost some weight since last fill, maybe about 3-4 lbs.

I will get another 1cc at the next fill. Just wondering if there is anyone went thru something similar.

It typically takes several fills until you reach your sweet spot. One thing you should remember is when you have a fill your stomach sells which could lead to a greater amount of restriction. When the swelling goes down your restriction will become less. Just think of it this way at least you have the option of getting another fill and adjusting it to your needs. Keep your head up and good luck!

i had my surgery on june 12,2009 i am starting on saturday the pureed foods what is good i am new to this thanks

Mashpotatoes was my favorite, they fill you up.. and Baby food fruit was my favorite, pears, strawberry/peach... good flavors.. hate sweet potates.. LOL..

FYI: I had 9 fills before I felt any significant restriction. I thought I was failing since I wasn't losing any weight. But now I feel it and should be able to lose adequately. Good luck to all and welcome to lapband!
