2muchfun 8,927 Posted March 15, 2014 I don't understand? If you're not experiencing the green zone now, why fear another fill when it's what you obviously need? People who are too tight can always go back and have a little taken out. Digesting food is not a real problem for any of us. Not losing weight is also common if your band is not adjusted properly. Keep going back for fills/adjustments till you get the fill that helps you feel more satiety and eat less. I didn't feel any restriction/satiety till my 3rd fill, 4 months after surgery. And then it took another 3 fills to reach the green zone. Best of luck. 1 jennybean reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
