bandedbabe 0 Posted May 16, 2006 Hi Everyone I was banded on March 2, 2006. I had my first fill 6 weeks later (1.4cc) I just had my second fill yesterday (5-15-06) (2.6cc). I am noticing a big difference with the second fill. With the first fill I had some restriction for about 2 weeks-- but, I still lost 7 lbs. I am down a total of 21 lbs. Started at 231 and am now at 210. This morning I drank a Slimfast and it took me 2 hours. I am pretty tight but I wanted to be really aggressive this month. Hoping in a month to be down below 200. I have loved the band-- however I had the gas pain in my shoulder for a long time after surgery (3 weeks). I loved my experience-- I had my band done in Monterrey, Mexico. I would do it all over again if I had to. Hoping to reach my goal of 140 by jan. 2007. I hope to meet a lot of of you here and share our band stories.
