I got 1.5cc on my first fill, then all fills after that were .5cc.

Welcome back Julie! Great weight loss!

Welcome to LBT! Glad to have you aboard!

It took me 5 fills before I got really good restriction. If you feel like you are eating too much and you aren't losing weight, it's usually time for a fill! I hope you start see the scale go down now!

I eat salads every day! I love salads! As far as a time frame goes, everyone is different, so it's hard to say. You usually lose 1-2 pounds a week, some lose more, some lose less. Good Luck!

Karen - I am so happy for you! It's time you had something good happen for you. You'll have to post afterwards and let us know how you are doing and the whole experience of the surgery. I truely hope this works great for you!

Welcome to bandland! Remember to sip that water, walk as much as possible, and use a heating pad for the pain in the shoulder.

Congrats to you! I did the same thing!

Welcome to LBT and to bandland! The hunger will be better when you can start doing some protein drinks. In the meantime, use lots of popcicles, jello, broth, and juice, coffee, and tea! Good Luck!

Awwww, I know that is heartbreaking! Just remember that good things come to those who wait, so you'll be fine!

Congrats on your surgery date!

I'm happy for you that you got to keep your band, and that the insurance covered it. Thanks for letting us know!

Hello Y'all! Wow, Chrispy you look wonderful! You are one hot chick! Patty - Glad to hear you are doing better! It won't be long until you are running all over the place. Mandy - My thoughts are with you and Abi, I sure hope you get the problem corrected. I know it's hard on her and you! Kat - You trip sounds wonderful! If it was just a little warmer, I would hide in your suitcase! 28 is too dang cold for me! I miss all the gals on here, and I'll be glad when everyone is back with us! I guess we'll have to send out several monkeys! Later!

How cute! Good Luck with your surgery and let us know how things went when you get a chance!

Are you drinking protein drinks? If so, then make sure you are also getting enough water in.
