aweebitsmaller 0 Posted March 3, 2006 Hi Sammee What brilliant going - certainly hope I can follow in your footsteps. I am new to all this - both banding and the email thread posts etc. Was banded on 20 Jan 2006 and to date have lost 10.4kg - slow going I guess, but it is steady. Had my first fill on 28th Feb. He insert 4ml but ... I feel no restriction, in fact, possibly less than previously. Is this normal? Keep up the good work - you're a star. :confused: By the way how do I view the photo's?

Regards Jaytee The pics are on my docs site.. I will have to chase up the URL.. I have lost it in the mess that is my "favorites". As for your loss to date? You are doing so well! 10.4kg in just over a month? That is fantastic. Be proud. Not feeling restriction after your first fill is fairly normal. And if your surgeon put in 4ml, you would have a 10ml (I think) VG band. So it may take a few fills to really feel it. We have a few Aussies who have a VG band (I have a 4ml band) so they may be better able to help you out with that one. But way to go! :clap2: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
aweebitsmaller 0 Posted March 8, 2006 Hi Sammee Thanks for your response. Yes I have a 9ml band. Glad to have some advise that it is normal not to feel too restricted at this time. And ... to hear that you reckon I am doing okay in the loss department. Just so scared of doing something wrong and causing the band to slip or that I may have a leak in the port or something equally as tragic. I went in for the op knowing almost nothing about it as I am the sort of person to back out if I know too much!!! So .... subsequently I have a hell-of-a lot of learning and catching up to do now that I am banded. Keep up the good work - only 9kgs to go - amazing and so very, VERY exciting.
