Did you loose weight between surgery and first fill?

I lost 15 lbs the first week post-op, another 6 lbs the 2nd week. When I started soft foods the 3rd week, I gained back 5 and stayed there for the next 3 weeks until I had my first fill. After the fill, I lost 11 lbs in 14 days, so my fill was the jump-start that I needed.

I had Lap Band Surgery May 2, 2005. April 19th, 2005 I went on the Pre-Op liquid diet and lost 23 lbs before surgery. After surgery until my first fill, July 6th, 2005 my total weight loss was 57 lbs. As of now my loss is at 85 lbs total. The lap Band is wonderful. I am so very thankful for it. I have more to lose yet and I hope to have 100 lbs lost by January 1, 2006. It really works!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I lost 10 kgs or so, but put another 3 or 4 back on...I took iut back off after my 2nd fill...but I have the big band so the first fill really didnt do anything.

I lost 19.5 pounds between surgery (9/19) and my first fill (11/2). I haven't weighed since then as I keep myself on a schedule with the scale. My doctor was pleased with the weight I had lost, and told me if this fill didn't make much of a difference, to come back before Christmas. Digging through the freezer the other night, I found a box of the Light Hot Pockets I had bought way pre-surgery. I made one. OUCH. Severe pain when I ate this. So, yup, I have a little more restriction and I'm pleased with that.

I was banded on 9/8/05, I had no preop diet. I have lost 26 pounds since the day of surgery and I have my first fill in the 2nd week of November 05.
