  1. I go for my first fill in May 1st, I'm kind of nervous. I don't really have a lot of restriction, i basically restrict myself by eating very small portions like they say to do. Trying to train myself, is it normal to not have any restriction 3 weeks post op?

    Going for first fill

    I eat chicken, fish fruit and veggies but instead of snacking i have a protein shake or some natural raw almonds to help satisfy my hunger in between meals. I have had no problems eating or drinking which is fantastic, no stuck episodes or vomiting.

    Going for first fill

    Thank you for that, when i get hungry i try to just have a shake so i don't eat to much and that seems to help. I'm losing so that's a plus but can't wait until my hunger is satisfied for a longer period
  4. How can you tell if your band has slipped?

    port location

    Ok yeah i noticed that little stinging sensation for the first time today under my right breast. Thank you for that information because i was like what is that, doesn't hurt just a little uncomfortable. I'm still tender in certain areas but not bad for two weeks post surgery.

    lap band slip

    Ok good to know i don't have any of that so that is a good sign . I just had surgery on april 5th and i keep reading all kinds of horror stories so it made me nervous. I go for my first fill May 1st and am a little nervous because i hear some people have a tilted port or it is backwards, one the dr couldn't get the needle in. Kinda scary, how long have you been bandef and have you had any issues

    Port question

    How did he know that it was flipped, did you go in for a fill? I just had surgery on the 5th so hearing this really concerns me.
