I need advice

Hi , i had my surgery on 07/15/09. I have lost 12 lbs. And that was in the first 2 weeks. I have an 11cc band. I had my first fill 6 wks post-op, 4 cc were added. I have "no restriction". I can eat anything and everything. I can eat almost as much as i did before surgery. Is this normal? I do not go for another fill until 10/22/09. Any advise would be appreciated. Thanks

    Yes that is very normal... Some people it takes 1 fill others 10 fills. Me the magic number was 4 and have lost 91lbs.

    It also took me several fills to get to a level that I had "permanent" good restriction, rather than fleeting. Why so long between fills? Can you get yours moved up?
