Hello - I was banded on May 4th. My Dr. told me I could receive my first fill at 6 weeks, but now I have learned that he will be on vacation from June 15-July 1. Six weeks would be June 15. so, I could ask him for a fill next week - say Wednesday, or I can wait until July. I haven't lost any weight in the last 10 days or so.... I am anxious to begin experiencing the benefits of the band! I tried searching for threads about time of the first fill, but I coudnt find one.... Based on your experiences, what do you recommend? thanks for your responses....

He did my surgery. What do you want to know? He has been doing lapbands for about 7years, and he does the bypass, too. He is personable and competent. I think we are blessed to have him right here in Rivertown. He could be making a great living anywhere, but he choses US! :blushing:

I don't care what anyone thinks.... revenge can be sweet! congrats on your progress.:blushing:

Greetings Wyocowgirl! I had my surgery in Riverton May 4, 2009. I think we are SO lucky to have Dr. Lewis in the heart of Wyoming! I like the ticker - helps me see the progress I have already made!

I phoned my Dr. but he doesn't work on Fridays! So I'll talk to his office on Monday and get his recommendation. thank you all for your responses.:blushing:
