I was banded on 9/15/08 I have lost only 12lbs since...I was hoping for more but 12 is good. I feel some restriction and I go to the hospital on 10/30/08 to get my first fill. My doc likes to do a flourscopy and make me drink a barium drink so he can follow the liquid flow and make sure he does not put to much in at first. My doc did indicate to me that some patients feel alot of restriction and some don't feel any at all until he gives them their first fill. Then they should see some real results.
I am hoping for the best.
