2nd fill on 8/4 - feel restriction today - is that odd

I had my second fill on August 4th - I have felt minimal restriction. The past few days I have felt an increase in restriction - is that normal to feel restriction 2 weeks after the fill?

Hi and the answer is..it depends on the person and the fill.

I didn't feel any restriction till 11 days after my first fill. Talk about shocked.

This is my second fill and I have yet to feel restriction and it's been 2 weeks.

I still don't overeat, the majority of my wt loss has been will power.

Don't be silly and eat too much or eat inappropriate foods if you don't feel too much restriction. You will lose wt. I don't think at 2 fills I have found my sweet spot, but till I can go for another fill, why cheat and mess myself up?

So much depends on how much DR put in fill, how often you get fills, how much fat you have lost around port, stress, time of month, etc. Lots of variables.

Keep your DR and NUT informed, but know that this is normal. Also, know that all people are different and each fill is different

PS-I'm in NJ also.

Good luck with your weight loss journey, I hope this helps!
