how long until you feel restriction?

I know I remember seeing another post about this question some time ago, but I can't seem to find it using Search.

How long did it take you to start feeling restriction after your fill? I'm a week out from my 1st fill, and while I eat FAR less than what I used to, I don't get that full sensation in the chest area. I have just been eating until I feel satisfied; I haven't tried to push my band to the limit.

everyone is different. I didn't get restriction from my first fill at all.

Christi,

Sometimes it may take a few weeks to gain restriction after a fill. Its a good idea to wait for you to complete a monthly cycle before you get another one. For most of us, we gain more (then ever!) restriction during that time.

So! Time will tell. Your fill is rather new - a week old. Most of us need at least 2 adjustments before getting to the right level of restriction. But again, only time will tell.

Another indication that bands are fickle and different - I am wide open during my monthly - no restriction. I am also unrestricted in the morning and more restricted from late afternoon on...Go figure.
