no restriction

Well, I got my first fill a week a a half ago and I have no restriction. I didn't really expect to, but it started out pretty good right after the fill. I can definitely eat more than my half a cup. I am going back in this coming Thursday, per doctor for another fill. I am still losing, but it has slowed way down. 3 pounds in about a week and a couple days. Has anyone else had to go back in this quick?

You are fortunate that your doc will do fills this soon. My practice made me wait 7 weeks post op then 6-7 weeks between fills. Long drawn out road to restriction.

You are losing well, congratulations.

I had my first fill the day before Thanksgiving and I feel no restriction. Unfortunately, I am not scheduled for my next fill until March. Does that seem really far off to anyone else? I was thinking about calling my doctor and seeing if i could get one sooner, but I don't know. maybe there is a reason for this very long interval between fills? It is frustrating though. I got this surgery as a tool to lose weight. So far, it isn't helping me much...

My Dr uses small fills but recommends coming in every 3 - 4 weeks - if you can actually get an appointment that is! Yes March sounds way too far off - I would try and get in again sooner, otherwise it will take you forever to get decent restriction.
