Ohh Melissa,

This is just too funny. I was just going back thru the previous messages and looking to see when your fill was rescheduled for. Couldnt find it so I was just fixing to post when I seen this message.

Glad the fill went good. Glad you have restriction. Keep us updated.

Unfortunately, I had to delete this post due to privacy concerns.

Got a lap band in 2008. Tried hard, but didn't lose much weight & developed swallowing problems. Fought my insurance company for almost a year & finally had a band to DS revision on 5/11/12. Have now lost 125 pounds. Yay!
