Thanks sooo much :w00t: i am new at this!

Hello everyone I am new to this site so please bare with me as I try to get use to it. I am 3 weeks post op and only 16lbs down. I got my first fill yesterday due to I was hungry all the time. But I feel no restriction :mad2:. Please someone tell me if this is normal. I am really trying to work hard at this and I am already feeling like I failed. When I went in for my appt. he filled me a little but after reading the X ray he decided to give me a little more. After drinking some water I began to burp it back up so he took some out. Now I feel just as I did before. I know I am suppose to be on liquids for 2 to 3 days but its just not cutting it! So what did I do I ate ... and I feel normal. I wish I felt bad physically but I only feel bad mentally cause I ate. Hell I feel as I did before I got the lap band...mentally bad, emotionally bad cause I am eating. I want to fell the symptoms that I have heard so much about. I WANT TO FELL FULL!!!! Please someone help.:ohmy: ELF

Just an update!! I returned to my doctors’ office today just to tell them how I had been feeling and I actually left with some good advice. The first thing was that I had been forgetting not to drink while I was eating. That I was only washing down the food I had just consumed. I had been doing that a lot and not really realized it. It sooooo hard to break past habits. Second I was told not to freak out that I had eaten bread or that I had even eaten before I was suppose to. That it was ok! (I did not wait the 3 days cause I wanted to see if the fill made me feel fuller…. It did not). That I had to give it some time & that I had not damaged the band or stretched the top stomach. But to try and get back on track and not to be down on myself. After my visit to the doctors’ office I felt better, but after reading the previous post I feel a lot more encouraged. I really appreciate everyone taking the time to respond to me. Its lets me know that I do not walk this walk alone. Thanks

Thank you soo much!! Its good to know that I am not alone. The only bad part is that my doctor is out of town for 2 weeks.
