I just had my 1st fill. I'm at 6cc's. I'm feeling the exact same way. Seems to be a "normal" feeling. (It's just more of lap band hell) Everyone keeps yelling at us to be patient. I say... screw 'em. Time is money! ahahaha --- We will lose the weight. We just have to be............ patient. (I'm so sick of hearing that!!) Hang in there.
So, I've been banded about 2 weeks and a few days. I've been doing all the Protein shakes blah blah.. But I'm sick of starving myself! It's time to eat. Who's going to eat with me? I need a support buddy. - ahaha.. Seriously, I'm suppose to go until Jan 1st until my first fill?? I'm told.. that I will still be hungry even after that! I'm going to enjoy Christmas. - Gotta go... It's time for a hambooger and dr pepper, chocoate cake for dessert. Mmmmmmm
Frustrated and no more patience!
Christina, I can't even imagine! Okay, I'll be good, cause I feel bad for you. (I need something to motivate me!) -- So, Did your doctor put saline in when you were banded? I have nothing in my band. - Can you hear my tummy growling from there??
Christina, Thanks for seeing my sense of humor. - Hey, I hope you are really doing okay now. 2 surgeries in one week? I cant believe a cheeseburger sounds good to you! Arent you swollen? The first week.. I was swollen so I didnt want anything. -

I know, I know, I know. Just blowing off frustration. I just had a Lean Body, Banana & Cream Protein Shake. mmmmmm! (I really wanted cake though) -- Gotta have a sense of humor through this.
Hi there. I am new to all this but....
I'm curious to know how your progress is coming a long.
I was also banded by Dr Anderson. I have been starving
but just gave in. I'm eating like the princess that I am. - HA
Hopefully, when I get some restriction...
I'll get back on track.
I see that your first fill didn't do the trick for you.
How long before you felt restriction?
Hi there. It looks like I was banded a year after you were by Dr Anderson. It wil be fun following your post! I was banded 11/22/11 --- I'm 15 days into this and I'm so hungry! My stomach growls, I dream of red meat... I hope I dont have to wait the full 6 weeks for the first fill. -- Paige

Matt Z, I was banded 11/11 - I'm entering my third week and I feel exactly the way you do. I'm so hungry. I could eat a horse! I just watch the cows grazing and I'm thinking... mmmmm STEAK! I want pizza. I truly believe I could eat anything I wanted. Those noises in my stomach are telling me to do some really bad stufft. - HA I go today for my post op check. I wish I could have a fill already! Dr. Anderson doesn't do fills until you are 6 weeks post-op. I've heard of others doing them as early as 4 weeks. -- Stay strong!
