latinamom 9 Posted June 30, 2012 I had my surgery dec 27 11 from then and now i have lost only about 10 pounds.I have had 5 fills i think i am at 6.7 cc. Every month i would get a fill and i would feel nothing like i never had the band i told the doctor what a waste of time he said it will eventually work.So i had a fill on monday and i waited a couple of days to go to solids and bam i felt restriction with little food what a difference so i just want to say hang in there you will get there.Today i had tuna and i barely had 2 spoons and i was full for like 4 hours .It will come patience now to figure out what i can and canot eat Goodluck everyone!!!

jennifer1 180 Posted June 30, 2012 Restriction is such an awesome thing! Just got another fill after a 4 month plateau and 7 pound gain..and i've lost 8 pounds in less than a week..I know that is fast but I think I needed to shock my body...come on size 10!

shonda225 1 Posted June 30, 2012 thank you so much for the encouragement... I had my surgery on 12/28 and I have lost nothing.. I initially lost weight, but slowly put out all back because I am just hungry all the time.. My last fill is finally offering some restriction.. very little though..

Mnt4ever 0 Posted June 30, 2012 I had my surgery the 16th of march and I'm at 9cc in a 14cc band and I finally feel good too!!! I do not feel hungry a lot now. So eventually it works. Just takes time. I can now easily go from meal to meal w/I needing to snack because I feel full and satisfied. In fact I'm to the point where I'll realize it's time to eat because I get hungry rather than thinking about food just an hr after eating. It's very nice!
