Sorry, but I am 10 months out and still doing it! It was less until I had my first fill, now more often. As long as the pounds come off, I will deal with it. Barb

Hi, I had my first fill and I was ok for the about 2 weeks and then I have been having trouble eating. I eat a little and it get's stuck! Is this normal? I like feeling full, better than tight! I have been trying to eat slower and it is helping. Good luck, Barb

Please update me to 267.

I think it would be great! I love the picture. Good luck on the weight lose. Barb

Hi All, My Dr will not give a fill, when you are losing weight. The band did a good job for me, for 9 months! I have also been using an exercise bike. Then it just happened, I would eat my mean and 2 hours later I would have to eat again! That was not good, I put back 4 pounds! So, I said it is time for a fill. I have a standard size (10cc) band and I now have 3cc in it. It was empty until I had the fill. Good luck to all, Barb

Hi, You need to drink the protein shakes! That is the only way to get the protien, you need to heal! It takes time, the pain will go away. Good luck! Barb

Yes, It works! I have lost 86 pounds in nine months. I just had my first fill and I hope to lose more. Good Luck! Barb

It has been 9 months and I am going for my first fill on 8/17. I have a 10 cc band in me and I also have to go to xzay to have it done. I do not like needles! I new that I would have to have fills when I got my band, but I still do not like needles! I was told that I will be on liquids for 2 days after.

I wait 1 hour after eating to drink and I do not have acid reflex. I can not eat bread, so I do not even try! I once tried drinking when I was stuck and that was the worst thing I could have done! I normally can eat most foods. Maybe, I am just changing. barb

Hi, My band normal works like yours. But, in the last week, I have had some problems with food getting stuck/PBing. Has this happened to anyone else? Barb

Hi, I am almost at the 9 month point and I have not had a fill! But, in the last week, I have had some problems with food getting stuck/PBing. Has this happened to anyone else? Barb

I am at 274, can you please update me? Thanks

Find another Dr! Your Ins. should be able to give you a list of Dr's that will do it. Barb
