I was banded May 17th and so far from pre-op to now I've lost 29 pounds. At the time of surgery, my surgeon put 4.5cc of saline. I had my first fill 2 weeks ago (1cc) and my next is June 24th. I almost feel like I'm losing rather slowly but I don't feel a lot of restriction and I'm hungry quite a bit. Anyone else experiencing hunger. Sorry, if you've already discussed but I haven't read through all the posts.
