THANK YOU FOR REPLYS, ITS ALWAYS GOOD TO HEAR FROM OTHER BANDSTERS. MY DOC WONT PUT MORE TAN 1.5cc IN AT A TIME

HI, HAVE HAD 1FILL OF 1.5cc and still not feeling full so i can imagine what you are going thru, am still dieting and feel thats why i may lose 1or2 pounds per week. hope it changes. my doc will only put in 1.5cc t a time

Have been banded for 7 weeks now and had 1 fill. Still not getting that fullness i hoped. Going for another fill next week. He also wants to test the band has not slipped. Will be really upset if it has. Am eating small meals compared to what i used to eat and feel ok til about 2 hours later and feel hungry again. Hope this next fill works, any comments on the above would be appreciated, thanks

hi, yes it happen to me, i put on 5lbs first week after the op and the surgeon and nutritionist told me i was not eating enough, cos you need to eat to lose the weight

i have since lost 21lbs in 3 weeks. good luck.

I am almost 3 weeks post op and now I am not losing any weight. I gained 2 lbs thru the week but am still down 20 since my surgery. I finally lost those 2 lbs again... I am barely eating maybe 300 calories a day. I am not hungry at all and actually forget to eat. I am just wondering when I will start losing again. I am afraid they wont give me a fill since I am not hungry and barely eating anything... Uggh has this happened to anyone else?

I go for a checkup tomorrow morning. Thanks
