no fill yet

Hello everyone. I am 6 weeks post-op and am scheduled for my first fill next week. I'm a little scared. I can eat now almost like I haven't had surgery. I have also stopped losing, but have not gained any. Did anyone else do that? I guess I just don't know what to expect. Should I see a huge difference with my first fill? I'm just ready to start losing again! Thanks for your input. Stephanie

Hey Stephanie, I'm 5 weeks out and I haven't had my fill yet but what I did to kick start my weight loss again was to drink more water, watch the carbs, and I kicked up my exercise routine a knotch.  We in this together so i'm  curious to know what the answers will be.  Also I want to recommend that you post this to the lap band forum.  Best Wishes and Congrats on where you are today

Hey. It's so good to hear from you. Sounds like you are doing great. I get my fill next week. Thanks for the advice.  Stephanie

Hey Steph... I'm in the same exact boat...I have lost 17 pounds, and am at a standstill, and there's nothing I can't eat.  They say 2 ounces, it's more like 2 cups...LOL  I think the only thing that's been saving me is keeping a count of my nutrition intake with calorie king... Tina

I'm so glad to know that I'm not the only one. Sometimes I feel so guilty after I eat a meal. It's like how can you do that after the money you spent??? But I'm hoping to get my fill this week and lose some more.  Stephanie
