I had my first fill yesterday. My dr used his hand found the port and stuck the needle in. It didn't even hurt, but knida made me sick for just sec. Went and took drink Water and was out the door. I got 3cc put in 10 cc lapband. I didn't expect to feel anything on my first fill but I do. I feel comfortable restriction. I am suppost to eat only liquid for 48 hours. I hope this restriction lasts cause nI'm lovin it. How long does the restricion usually last???????

Yep, my stomach growls occasionally but I'm not hungry. I'm learning to just tell it to shut up and then ignore it.

Some people do have a temporary restriction after a fill, most likely due to temporary swelling. I never did.

I had my first fill yesterday, too! I have had absolutely NO desire to eat since it was done, but I feel fine!

Hey all,

I had my 1st fill on this past Monday...Today is Thursday and I still feel lots of restriction....I went to a support group meeting last night and weighed-in and I never, ever weigh at night...Against my norm....I weighed in and I was 2.6lbs down from my Monday morning weight.... I could not beleive it. I am seriously not hungary and have to remind myself...rather my growling stomach and the length of time between my meals has to remind me to eat...something...

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
