A lot of people don't feel restriction with their first fill...I hope you do though! I personally didn't reach good restriction until fill # 5!

I agree w/ 4-5 fills/

For me I think it was fill #6 or 7, and six months after surgery before I really had restriction. The wait was frustrating, but since I finally reached restriction it's been smooth sailing!

For me it was three fills. I too felt a lot of hunger until then. Don't be discouraged. The fills will work, just need to be patient.

Another big thing is WHEN you get on Solids , don't eat too soon after & make sure you eat some sort of meat Protein. This helps me stay full longer. I rty to wait 40 min atleast befor eI drink :-)

I can honestly say I feel restriction now. I have 5ccs in an 11cc realize band and this was fill #1.

Thanks to all who have replied thus far. I must admit that at first I think I was eating too big of a bite and eating too fast. Then I corrected those problems. I am evaluating everything I eat now and I am at the point where I am now scared when I eat (is there anybody else like this).
