I was banded in Tijuana MX. by Dr. Kuri on 02/14/05. At that time I weighted 275 lbs. and got my first fill two months later. I had success with the first fill until I hit a plato and got stuck. Drove to TJ and received my second fill at 1.9 cc. I imediately felt no change and unfortunately I could not schedule another adjustment do to a trip. Two days ago finally I made it to the doctor's office and was filled with 3.0 cc. It's been two days and my stomach is very tight and the feeling is just like when I first had the surgery. Up to date I have lost a total of 50 lbs. It sure feels like this is the right fill for me and soon I should be reaching my goal. This is for all of you that get discourage and want to give up. For some it may take 1 or 2 fills and for others like myself 3 or more. The important thing is to follow the rules and stay focus. Good luck everyone!
