Fills DO work, if YOU work with it.



Recommended Posts

I have 4.8cc in my band for my first fill. Today is the first day I'm allowed to eat soft solids

after being on liquids for the first 24 hours, then graduating to mushies yesterday.

We went to Olive Garden for my younger brother's graduation dinner and I ordered off the kids

menu of chicken with broccoli. I had a few bites of the Zuppa Soup that came along with it (eating most

of the kale in the Soup instead of the potatoes) and barely took four bites before I was completely full

and satisfied.

Maybe it's my honeymoon stage, but I have tuned in with my body alot since surgery and I

am learning so much about when to stop eating, when to eat, etc.

I know fills will work if you give it time. And everyone is different...someone with the same amount

of cc fill may not agree with me, but I'm just sharing a few positive thoughts for those who are curious about

band fills.

Happy Banding :0)

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
