Buckeye62 0 Posted July 22, 2006 Hi Everyone, Did many of you have a slow or no loss during pre-fill. I had my band placed 6-19-06 lost approx 18 lbs. during the first two weeks and now, nothing. I am always hungry and have no restriction. I know that 18 lbs. lost is still good but I'm just looking for reassurance that I can lose at a steady pace after my fills begin. First fill is on 7-28-06. Thanks, Dwayne Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Elisabethsew 50 Posted July 22, 2006 I consider myself an average loser but what you're experiencing is perfectly NORMAL! I lost all restriction at 5 days post-op and really struggled to maintain my weight loss until I had my first fill at 8 weeks. Since then, I had 2 additional fills and this last one did the trick. I am now eating within the lapband guidelines so hang in there... restriction will happen with your fills. Until then, make good choices and stay within the calorie limits.
