Banded in June and I just had my first fill last Thursday. Prior to the fill I found that I could eat and drink nearly the same amounts that I could prior to getting banded. In other words nothing gets stuck. It has been a week now since the fill and there is no change. I can still eat whatever! I am getting a bit frustrated.

Daren, sorry to say you are in a place called Bandster Hell. That is the period between getting banded and getting enough fills to get some restriction going. The best advice I can give you is stick to a modified calorie high protein diet and do exercise. Be careful or you will regain 12 pounds like I did!!!! Best wishes,

Mimi

Thanks. I called the Dr. Office and they agreed to let me come in today. I am not sure if he is gonna give me some more fill this quickly or if he is gonna tell me to suck it up and come back next month. lol

Doctor update: He went ahead and put another 2cc in today. He said we will just keep goin until we find the right spot. He said I was an overacheiver!
