No Fill

[anfee1 0]

This is my first post. I was banded on 9/13/07. Down 30 pounds total. First fill on 10/19/07 and second on 11/14/07. I went for my third fill last week, I lost 4 pounds and Doc said 1 pound per week was what he wanted and I did not need a fill. I have some restriction but I can still eat quite a bit. I can drink 8 ounces of Water straight down. I fill it most with bread. Maybe I am not looking at the band as a tool and want it to do it for me. Any thoughts

Your weightloss is going great!

It's time for a fill when you stop losing weight for several weeks/ gain a pound/ or struggle to not eat as much...and I mean it's difficult to not binge.

Seems your doc is going to see how the next few weeks go for you...but sounds like he is on your side and will give you a fill if your weightloss stalls.

Congrats on the weightloss!

You're doing great on your weightloss. Don't be in such a rush for fills. Get one only when you really need it.
