JFROMERO 1 Posted January 10, 2011 Hi everyone! Sorry its been a while i was banded on 12/7/10 and it has been some ride let me tell you. I have had several episodes with trying new foods i have felt the "stuck" sensation. I have eaten foods that i shouldnt have. I have lost weight but fill fat though. i get my second fill tomorrow i have a 14ml lapband the larger one. and so far my last adjustment was 2.5ml which is a start. that whole experience was a trip i didnt even know i had the adjusment it was a easy. some problems finding my port though because im a big guy but so far i have lost will say 15lbs not doing a whole lot of exercise yet. eating good most of the time my vice thus far is chips and salsa. 1 JFROMERO reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm only two weeks post op. Do you feel any pain after a fill? My doctor wants me to wait 8 weeks before my first fill. The surgery was so painful for me, I'm hoping a fill isn't.

JFROMERO 1 Posted January 11, 2011 the adjusments are not that bad the first adjusment was simple i was focused so much on expected pain i didnt even know i was done. second fill went great as well now i have to get the right amount of Fluid in my band so i am not hungry all the time.
