Thanks for the Biotin advice. I hadn't heard about that, I'm gonna get some this afternoon and start trying it. :thumbdown:

I had the same problem. My hair was coming out by the handfulls. :thumbdown: That's the first sign that your not getting enough protein. They told me to get at least 60 grams of protein a day. Since I started paying attention to how much protein I get a day I've noticed my hair is not falling out as much. It gets better every day.

I was nervous too. There's not much to it though. You don't feel anything except the numbing medicine that they put in first.

I was told to do liquid for the rest of the day the day of my fill and the next day but after that to go back to regular food. I had problems with my fill being too tight. I just went for my second unfill and I'm fine now. I would call your doctor and tell him/her what's going on and they will probably get you to come back to take some out.

I haven't found a support group yet. I was trying to find one when I found this website. I haven't heard anything about the realize band. I haven't seen my doctor except for once since my surgery. From what I understand I won't see him again unless there are problems with the band. The only problems I've had with food is my band has been too tight. I just got it loosened for the second time yesterday and things seem fine now. I thought about getting a diary and keeping up with my food but haven't done it yet.

Hi, My name is Kristy and I live in Moultrie GA and work in Thomasville. I got my band April 21, 2008 :thumbup: in Albany GA by Dr. Bagnato. I have had two fills and I'm going this afternoon to get my second unfill. We're having trouble finding the sweet spot. Has anyone else had problems with their fills?
