Wednesday is the day -1st fill

[Banded in Boston 0]

I was banded on 12/27.. Since then I have kept off 15 lbs but it is a struggle I am up and down a few pounds weekly , I feel like a roller coaster . I am as hungry as I was before the surgery but used weight watchers to keep on board and use less points as what I would normally do . so I am looking forward to this week . I however have had sticking already which I dont understand , Yes , perhaps I have eaten too fast and swallowed to quick without chewing , then again is that normal ? Rice , Toast , Some chicken .. it varies . vomiting is no fun and I am glad I know what it is like to "stick" I am just hoping that something isnt wrong .

So , I am waiting for the "non" hunger and then satisfied on a small amount to find me and reduce me to smaller sizes while learning .

Any suggestions ? Ideas ? How long before I see weight loss ? I am scared because I have been up and down for 6 weeks .

Thanks and Happy Valentines day to all !!

Same for me. I was banded 1/31, and my first fill will be 3/1. Can't wait! Right now I feel the way I did before I had the surgery, with no restriction. I have to struggle to stay on a diet to stop from gaining weight. It's the same for me as dieting before being banded. I'm keeping the weight off by substituting meals with Protein shakes. (pre-op diet)

Well I received 3 CC and I have to say it was rather uncomfortable.. I am hungry but not that hungry .. I ate soft today ,,,, scrambled eggs were too dry and hurt a bit . I have slowed down on my chewing and how much I place on a fork .

Its not quick and I am learning as I go too , so I am glad we have the forumns
