When I went in for my first fill the doctor had me sit on the table with the needle in my port and put in about 5 cc's, then he asked me to drink some water and see if it would pass it wouldn't so he took out 1 cc and it was able to pass. The day after I had my fill I could hardly eat because the band was working but after 24 hours it was no problem I could eat. I went back and did the same thing needle port sitting added 5 cc's drank wouldn't go down took out 1 cc and I was able to drink water so I was at 8 cc's get home eat a little bit and feel the restriction. After 24 hours again i'm eating like a crazy man :Banane35:. I still eat less then before I was banded I used to eat 2 chipotle burritos a sitting and be fine now I can eat about 16 onces of food before it kicks in. Was wondering if I should go back for the remaining amount of room the band will hold? I'm 23 5'11 and weight 240 and guess the lapband is no match for my super stomach haha

I was banded 4 days ago on the 10th I was in the hosipitol for 3 days on liquid diet and they released me didn't really tell me what not to eat just take it easy. I ate a chicken breast and some potatoes yesterday I made sure to chew 20 times until it was small and soft, but after reading the forums here it looks like eating right now is bad. I hope this hasn't affected my band I was kinda upset that I could eat as much as a did on my fourth day. I had my band done in Bahrain it was cheap after all was said and done it was $6,200 had a private room and 3 days stay 24 hour coverage. The doctor didnt explain how much the fills are anyone know normal price? The doctor told me he wouldn't do a fill for about 2 months out so I guess I better wait. I noticed that if I drink water when I eat I fill up but if I don't I can eat a lot, soups fill me up on the other hand while I can eat chicken potatoes just fine, shrug maybe im just weird.
