So after 5 or 6 fills (I forget which, I could be lying, maybe 3 or 4, ok 5 whatever) I have yet to TRULY feel restriction, it works for a day or so then eh I could really eat what I wanted it, if I wanted to... I finally.. finally have restriction and this couldn't be better after a 15lbs gain in the last month - my doctor says not to worry because it's muscle - my measurements are way down... so they say there's nothing to "do" per say besides eat right and exercise, which I'm doing. But I gotta admit I was upset to see the scale going UP, but I think it'll be on it's way back down here.. I have no appetite.. FINALLY! YAY RESTRICTION!!!!

OMG congrats!!! :tongue: ive just had my first fill and have some restriction. i cant wait for my next fill!

how do you feel?

Lucky you! I'm patiently waiting to find that sweet spot I keep hearing about. I go Friday for my 4th fill...keep you fingers crossed. :tongue:

I feel good not hungry at all. I literally take like 4-6 bites of something and I'm done. I couldn't eat more if I wanted to. My doctor gave me a VERY aggressive fill - 1.5 ccs since I missed my last one and was eating way more than I should. But I feel GREAT! - I did slime for the first time though but it was quick painless and over with.. I hadn't eaten all day and tried to eat something quick between the event and after party. I was about 3 bites in and DONE then I coughed from eating too fast and felt like I had thrown up but it was just spit so I kept it moving...

Lucky you! I'm patiently waiting to find that sweet spot I keep hearing about. I go Friday for my 4th fill...keep you fingers crossed. :tongue:

I hope you get it! my dr was saying that that coveted "sweet spot" usually comes at the 1/2 mark of your band being filled... Hope you find yours SOON!
