I have also had 2 fills so far. I was banded on 11/5/07. First fill was 1/18/08 and second fill was 1-week later on 1/25/08. I think I am getting there. I have noticied that I need to eat and chew more. However, I can still eat that same portion size as I normally did. I am going in for a third fill next week. I ahve a 14cc band with 3cc in the first time and 2cc in the second time. I also waited for a week just to see if the restriction would kick in. In my case, it did not. I feel like I am always hungry so I at this point I am looking to get som good restriction. My weight loss is little to none so I am feeling frustrated over this whole process. I guess we just have to go for another fill and hope that this is the one that will hit our sweet spot.
Good luck and let me know how you make out if you go for a third fill. |
