  1. That's a good question..if you get a fill that isn't enough, how long do you have to wait for another?

    I have unlimited fills with my fee...my first is July 16th...I will ask that question...but if anyone else knows...I would love to know!

    How did you get unlimited fills with yours? Do you live around this area? My husband has taken me both times. I would like to get a fill before we go on vacation on July 12 and I just had one on June 14th. I don't want to ask him to go again. Also what is up with the fee to pick you up across the board and take you to the doctors office?

  2. Hi,

    I'm not having an easy time either. I can't even tell when I am full!!!!! I was banded on april 2, and had two fills - 9 June and 16 June, the first didn't work. The second seems a little better, but I notice my appetite doesn't get sated enough and it is not head hunger only. I have only lost a total of 12 lbs since April and only 4 since being banded - which I suppose is ok, but I have already made an appt. for a third fill July 11th. I have a 5cc band and they put in .5 cc's each time, but the doctor told me I have a total of 1.5 cc's because of the air!!!! Anyone ever hear of that?

    I really thought this would work better than it is doing; so I am feeling discouraged. I get the the "stuck" feeling lots too - Last night I tried to eat a chicken wing - big mistake - don't try it. Yet, I can eat bread with no problem. Can't eat scramble eggs though. I guess we all have to find what is right for us and what works. I'm hoping the third fill will be a charm. Any advise??

    Best, Helen

    Hang in there, I'm getting discouraged too. I'm so hungry today. When can you have a second fill?

  3. :D I still seem to be able to eat as much as I could before. I haven't tried to eat that much, but I not eating 1/2 of what I was. I have a 4 cc band and have 2 cc in there now. The only difference is the king of food I eat and how fast. How much weight should you loose the first month with your fill?
