Not Feeling Full

[violinlady 3]

Hi,

I was banded on 10/26 and have had 2 fills. I was doing just fine but now I feel lke I'm eating way too much because I never feel like I'm full. I've gained 4 pounds and this really concerns me. I'm going to the doctor tomrrow and see what he says. Maybe another fill will help this out. Any ideas?

well, I find that I never feel full at least not to the extent that I used to feel presurgery. I measure/weigh what my meal should be and sometimes satisfied, sometimes not. I have just accepted that this is really all that I need and that how I ate before is what got me into this situation! I used to eat until I was stuffed and had to be rolled away from the table. Getting over the realization that s

atisfied does not equal stuffed was a hard one at first for me. In fact it is something I have been battling once again in my head lately!

I would def think it's time to get another fill. I had my first 2 fills at about 5 and 7 weeks post surgery. I have had 11 fills and 2 slight unfills in 14 months.
