Hey girl dont give up.. some people are lucky real fast will the success of their surgery. I has my lap band done on 7/31/08 and it's been great once you get your fill steady you will be good to go. Just remember it's a tool and once you see results it will be easier for you to do the right thing . Good luck :)

So,as I said I had my fill yesterday. I am still able to eat without trouble. I must be a freak or something. I stop after 1cup of food because I think that is enough. I go back in four weeks for another fill. I hope it gets better.

I was able to eat anything I wanted (I didn't) at 2wks out. It's amazing how hungry you get as soon as you heal and are able to eat. I had my first fill today, had my surgery Dec 16, 2008. I am waiting for restriction now..we'll see tomorrow after the 24hr liquid diet. My surgeon says it takes a few fills until you get to your ideal restriction. Just be patient, it takes time. My doc tod me today that ideal weight loss with band is like 2-3lbs a week. Remember that. Good luck.

You are at very early stages, be patient with it. I have had first fill and still don't have proper restriction. This is not a quick fix. You have to put in the work, this is not a cure.

I still get head hunger but I fight through it by finding something else to do - go for a walk - that helps distract and lose weight.

And when you fancy food, go for fat free options.

Hey girl, check out the video I attached. I had just made it a few weeks back! You will be fine I promise. Just remember you are also on a life style change and you need to use this time to learn why you eat when you eat and make good choices when you reach for food. But your restriction will come and you will get on tract I promise.
