1st post and 1st fill

[Melissa Cotton 7]

Hey,

This is my first post, i've been lurking around and reading the forums. I just got my 1st fill yesterday. I wasn't feeling any restriction before my fill, and so far, I'm not feeling any of this 4cc fill. Hopefully, its just delayed which i've heard can happen.

Well look forward to losing weight with you all.

I didn't feel any restriction after my first fill of 4 cc either - I think that is pretty normal. I do feel restriction now after my second fill of 2 cc.

The full effects of a fill can be delayed for a week or so but understand that many people do not get good results from the first fill. You feel a little more restriction with each fill but on average it takes around four fills to get to your sweet spot.

Personally I didn't get anythign from my first fill, a little better with second, felt great with third and fourth but lost weight rapidly which caused the band to get loose. Fill five was when I hit my sweet spot.

I also had 4cc for my first fill. I really felt no difference at all. My weight pretty much hit a plateau during that period. However, my fill last week to 4.6cc has made a huge difference and I've lost 2.5 pounds already. I definitely feel restriction, although I don't think I've hit my sweet spot yet. I know patience with this process is so difficult, but you will get more restriction with each fill.
