I know exactly how you feel. I was banded on May 20, 2008. I had my first fill a week ago (2.5cc), but I still feel like I can eat as much as before my fill and I am hungry all the time. I will cross my fingers that it only gets easier.

woohooo you made it to your first fill. Have you started solid foods yet? That certainly makes a big difference too!
Don't be nervous over getting a fill. If you are, you can ask them to numb the area a little first. I've had it done both with and without numbing. Obviously numbing is a little better but w/o isn't horrible or anything.
Good luck and let me know how it's going!

Okay - So I finally will have my first fill on Thursday. I thought I would never make it. I have hungry the last week, but nothing extreme thankfully. I will update you then on how much I have loss.

Holy cow!! I completely missed it that you posted on here
It used to pop up and tell you when someone posted on your profile.
I hope you are feeling much better now! My port took the longest time to heal. Mostly because I could just feel it tugging when I moved - not really pain - just freaky!!
It's almost been a year for me and I couldn't be any happier with the results. (OK - maybe a little plastic surgery would help).
I love this site and the support you get!

I am new to this, but I am almost 2 wks out from Surgery. (05.20.08). I am on soft foods. But the 1cup moderation is not cutting it right now. I have 75grams of Protein. I really can not wait to have a fill. Hopefully this will help. Typical Daily Meal: Protein shake - Meal Replacement - 50g blended w/banana and Skim Milk Protein Supplement - Taco Soup - made w/Ground Turkey Baked Fish w/ Steamed Veggies I am losing the weight but feel like I am starving myself in the process. I am always feeling like I am not getting enough. :confused2: -

I saw your pics... You look great! Gives me great encouragement. I have yet to get over being sore, but I think that is right around the corner.
