When are you having your first band fill?

[hokiemama 13]

I was banded on November 15th and am scheduled for my first band fill on December 9th. I was thinking I would not have my first fill until later, maybe January. I am not getting hungry between meals yet. I'm wondering if I should cancel the fill and wait a little longer. I don't want to wait "too long" and take the chance of gaining weight. When are you having your first fill?

I had surgery Nov. 22nd and I go back to the doctor today for my post-op appt. I am assuming he will set up my fill appointment. The day of surgery, he said my first fill would be around New Years. I think 6 weeks out is the norm.

I had surgery November 2, 2010 I was supposed to go for a refill on December 2, 2010 but due to a post op infection I most likely will have to wait a few more weeks.

I think it could depend on if your surgeon put any saline in at surgery - mine did and I didn't even know it. He put in almost 4cc and 9 weeks later added 1.5 to it. I go back in this Friday and hope for a little tweak!! I also need to remember to ask how big my band it - as if that means anything, really?!?!

I had my surgery on Oct 20th and I was supposed to get my first fill today....but my insurance company didn't approve the fill in time and now it'll be postponed for 2 weeks or so. Kind of sucks, I was hoping to get the ball rolling on fills to reach that sweet spot. On a bright note, my weight loss has been pretty consistent ever since my first appointment with my Dr. and I'm on pace to reach my End of Year goal.
