aczwill 0 Posted May 14, 2012 I was banded on April 12th. My first fill is May 18th, originally scheduled May 11th. I can't wait. I've been stuck at a 23 Ib weight loss for several weeks now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
carameldlight 0 Posted May 15, 2012 I had my first fill today. My surgery was 4-12-12. So, I waited a little over a month. She told me today that if I can still eat more than a burger and not feel full call & get another fill whether that's 2wks, 2mo's, or years. So, I don't think it's a time frame at least not with my doctor. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cjm10 3 Posted May 15, 2012 I had my surgery in November 2010 and my dr had me go in 3 weeks after surgery and every 3weeks after that for the first 90 days cause that's what my insurance covered! It worked great for me that way....I followed everything to a T and within a year I lost 110 lbs! Good Luck everyone :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
