I need some advice on the necessity of my 2nd fill. I was banded 2/28/05, a little over 4 weeks ago. I had my first fill last week. I can feel restriction, but nothing too tight. My PA told me that she wants me to come back in for another fill in about two weeks. I have lost a total of 27 pounds since I was weighed one week prior to surgery. (Average of 5.4 lbs per week.)
My questions is..... If I am making this much progress should I get a fill right now? Should I wait until I hit a plateau? I don't feel deprived of food at all. I am currently eating about a cup per meal of mostly healthy items. (Small indulgence once and awhile...) So far I have been trying to walk more and will begin a work out program this week.
Any guidance that I can receive is appreciated.
Thank You,
Juli
