thank goodness I am not the only one. I just made a similiar post. My first fill was 2cc's. I can still eat a lot. I've only lost 2 pounds since my first fill!. I still get the stuck feeling when I first start to eat but other than that I don't think I have any restriction. I am going to make an appointment and go get another fill. good luck!!!!!! Your not alone!! tina

You should be able to eat solid foods, Protein first, in order to fill yourself up. Be careful of the "easy" foods (ice cream, chips, juice).

I always suggest folks to log onto fitday.com and track their calories for at least a few days. That way, you can see what you are eating.

See the top of this board regarding adjustments under the "FILLS" heading. It has great info. on knowing when you need to be adjusted.

Some folks are just slower than others. 1-2 pounds per weeks is expected but not always the case.

Good luck. Shawn
