Thanks

I was feeling stuck.. Today was my second fill. I hope I get some restriction. Been partying and fell of really bad. Ready to get focus again!

Post opt since October 7th, 2011.. Had my first fill on Friday August 24, 2012 and I've lost nine pounds. Pre opt at 311lbs. Ten months post opt 245lbs and in five days after my first fill I'm down now to 236lbs.. I'm so happy I could fly!!! Lol.. My doctor gave me 2cc in a standard band and I'm doing pretty well with it. This was the best decision I've made in my life!!!!

Yes I'm extremely proud and happy!!! Thanks

Yea we can do this!! Was also banded on 10/08/11 and I'm down 67 lbs. had my first fill today and so far so good. Don't give up!!

My first fill wasn't so bad.. 2cc was added to my band. Not feeling hungry. Going to do liquids for a week. But damn the cost is crazy!!!dde31dde31

How was your first fill experience?!

Did you guys do any preparations before getting your fill? I ask my doctor he said I don't have to do anything special. I'm doing it on my lunch break. So scared!

Was banded on October 7th 2011 and I'm down 61 lbs. I'm 10 months post op, and never had a fill yet. I don't understand how come people are getting fills every month. I feel that I may be ready for my first fill because I've reach a plateau and I'm not losing weight. I can eat more and I have to really fight the cravings. I've also gone back to liquid to get myself prepared for my first fill next week. I need to exersice more, but haven't found the energy. I'm not gonna give up! But is it ok not to have a fill post 10 months surgery, I'm just wondering!

Thanks so much!!

I feel you.. Can't wait to get under 200lbs .. I can taste victory!! Lol keep up the good work!!

Wow congrats 83lbs in six month is super great!!

Wow you guys are doing great!!! Thanks for all your advice and encouragement. It's been hard loosing anything these past few months due to bbq's, wedding and parties. I totally went off track and I'm getting back on the right track. I just know my first fill is going to jump start my weight lost again, I have some restriction still and I feel I need more. Thanks a lot.. This site is GREAT!!!!!!!

Oh ok.. My doctor said its because I'm still loosing weight every month and you should just used a fill when you really need it and your no longer loosing weight. Anyways I'm scared to get a fill.. So scared of needles.
