2nd fill was ok, more restriction, but i'm going for my 3rd tomorrow. I've heard from alot of people the 3rd usually does it. I was losing steadily, (until it stopped) :~) I went back to the gym yesterday with my trainer, this will help. I can barely walk today, but I know it's all worth it in the end.

Hey CandyJo~ I'm doing fantastic..thanks for asking =) I am at a stand still right now so I have scheduled my 2nd fill for August 27th =) How are you doing? I see you got your second fill in June, do you have more restriction with it? I didn't have any restriction with my first fill =( I am keeping my fingers crossed that the 2nd fill is better! Take care and thanks for check...

is so glad I got banded, but even after my first fill the first part of June I have no restriction yet...I will go back in August for fill #2 =)

Something that was stressed to me was to be sure to get plenty of liquids. You don't want to get dehydrated! Every person is different as far as pain levels and yes to me the gas was the worst. But if I were to describe my pain level it was just mild discomfort and on a scale of 1-10 it would've been a 3. Hope things get better for you and be sure to keep hydrated =)

Hey RIP..how was your trip to TJ?? I got 5cc's in my band! I had a great time as usual, although I was not impressed with the Mariott as I liked the Lucerna alot better =) Anyways, hope all went well...keep in touch =)

Hello Chica, well I lost the 2 lbs I thought I gained. I have'nt lost anymore. I scheduled my fill for June 10th. I haven't been eating like I thought i was going to. Ive been able to stop and wait 4 hours til eating again. I can't get into exercise just yet. My feet have been bothering me again. Shew foot problems suck. I hope all is well! I miss ya!

That's terrific news..so glad things went well for you and you were able to keep your original band!! My thoughts are exactly as yours are..I am traveling back to OCC for all my fills!! I was banded on April 15th and I have scheduled my first fill for June 3rd. I was told by Dr. So that "IF" I follow the directions and do as I am told I shouldn't need more than 3 fills. Now I know everyone is different, but I figure they are the professionals and have been doing this for a long time, they probably know what they are talking about!! Take care and keep us posted on your "new" journey! Nikki

Good luck!! You will do fine with it and it's nice that you have lots of support!!! I was banded on the 15th of April and so far I have to say it's been the best decision I have made =) Take care and keep us updated with your progress!!!! Nikki

Hey there... Thanks for the nice thoughts. Me too, I want a baby and the fertility doc. will now talk to me because I've lost 75 lbs.
You just started your journey and that's awesome! Keep in touch!

Great job on the weight loss!! They say slow and steady wins the race =) Good thing we really aren't "racing" but doesn't it feel good to have "lost" 76 lbs FOREVER?!?!

Don't get discouraged! I have read they have said that you may or may not lose any weight until you get restriction. I guess that is why they tell us it is important to get a fill 6-8 weeks post op! I'm not getting discouraged..I am just trying to keep in mind that I am going to have to do the majority of the work(not eating so much) and let the band be my guide. Helping each ...
