question about losing restriction after 5th fill

loveangelpet · May 9, 2008

Hi, I had my 5th fill on Tuesday. Before which i was feeling slight restriction but knew i was in need of an adjustment. Since that fill, of only .2 I feel a little less restriction then i did before. Has anyone ever felt this? I'm not complaining i've had success losing 81lbs since surgery in november 07. However, i dont want something to be wrong and not know. Is it possible to have a little tighter restriction before a fill then it be less after? I am calling my dr today but i just wanted some insight from anyone who would maybe know or have felt this. Thanks:rolleyes: btw i now have 6.7 in a 10cc band.

It may take a few days for it to kick in. I know mine always do.

I am sure you are fine!

I am on my 2nd fill & I have a total of 5cc in a 10cc band. I have had the adjustment for a little over a week...I havent really started to see the pounds drop...How have you losted 81 pds in 6 months? That is amazing. I would appreciate any tips.

the only advice i can give is the one my dr gave me, eat meat, then veggies then starch if you have room. I barely touch starches. I do eat cereals and snack bars. No bread, rice, or potato though. Good luck
