Lap Band Fill Question... Sorry Of Its Repetitive

[Ale817 1]

I got my first fill on 11/19. 3cc's in a 10cc band. My surgeon told me that I might only feel restricted the first few days, which I did. Then came the holidays, I def ate less but had some sweets that I know I shouldnt have. Anyway I'm back on track and I feel like I feel the fill more now! It took me time to drink my Protein Shake this morning and I just made eggs for lunch n I realllly had to take my time! This is a welcome surprise but how is it possible that I feel more restricted now, over a week later?

I don't why it happens but it does so relax and enjoy. You are very lucky to feel restriction on your first fill. It may disappear as you lose weight but that is also normal.

Thanks for your response...I'm so glad to feel some restriction, just thought it was weird that it took more then a week after my fill to feel this.

Definitely normal. Every time I have a fill my PA always reminds me that it can take a week or even two to really notice a difference.

I have not had a fill yet as I was just banded 12/20 but I can eat just a little now and I am FULLL... If it stays this way, heck. I may not want a fill... No sickness no side effects at all and I am just eatting what I want to but I know when to stop.. The restriction that I guess that I will feel with the band is not being able to eat certain foods. I have no problem keeping down my food or drink.. just the full satified feeling.

The change in restriction usually comes quicker than 1 1/2 months but it can happen. Your profile does'nt give your age but restriction can change depending on your monthly cycle.
