Evere feel like there is no fill even though you know there is Fluid in your band. I have been banded since 1/30/12. I have lost 50lbs since then. I have 3cc in my band. Some days I know its there cause what I eat and how I eat lets me know its there. But today not so much. Today was oatmeal for Breakfast the band let me know its there. Then at lunch I had some frozen yogurt with toppings and I knew that wasnt a real lunch so I got a bean burrito which had to be a pound just Beans cheese rice sour cream whole wheat tortilla and I was able to eat the whole thing. I know I shouldnt have but it was yummy and so far no ill effects.

Hi. I seem to have a hungry day every third or so day. My weightloss has been ok, alot less than others but I'm pleased. I have been having treats but mostly within a calorie allowance. I don't see it as a problem as I know my food intake will become more and more restricted so what I eat day might not be possible in a month. I'm not hard on myself(anymore).

I had my second fill this week which has taken me to 5.5ml in a 10ml band. The last two evenings I felt I was eating almost hourly as I wasn't satisfied. Today tho some restriction has kicked in because I can't manage more than 4-6 forkfulls of food as I have vomited.

Hope I get that with every meal as I'll be well on my way!!:)

My band has felt as though it has nothing in it for months now.I know that is not the case but I can't wait to get back to where my fill level was previously as this sucks.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
