rmalikone 108 Posted August 14, 2013 I was banded on the 8th and will get my first fill also on the 27th and I think I could have used it at least a week ago. Probably not medically wise a week ago? Right now it feels just like any other diet. My history with diets ain't to good!!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
this sucks 557 Posted August 14, 2013 Sorry to disappoint all of you, but you probably won't feel any different after your first fill, or your second or even your third fill. (Of course, it depends on how aggressive your doctor is with fill amounts.) You are entering into what is commonly known as bandster hell. Hang in there though. Just stick with your plan, eat your Protein and drink your Water and it will work out. 1 enjoythetime reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cherie Murphy 22 Posted August 15, 2013 I was banded on 6/20 and have since lost 19 pounds and a total of 39 since May 1st. I went to see my Dr to have my first fill. After filling out the questionnaire he told me I don't need a fill yet... He said as long as I'm losing a 1 to 1.5 pounds per week I don't need a fill and according to the questionnaire i'm in the green zone. So for who are not getting your fills are you not considered in the green zone? Are you feeling hungry? My Dr placed the largest band and I thought for sure I would need a fill! 1 this sucks reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
this sucks 557 Posted August 15, 2013 I had my first adjust right at 3 weeks after . I'm due for my second . You should have had your 1st ! Just a reminder-every doctor has his own protocol. Most won't do your first fill until at least 6 weeks post op to give your body time to heal and surgical swelling to go down. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
