Why am I hungry and i have the lapband
not till the beginnig of Oct Thank you so much for your reply 
Hi Kelly,
We'll all be different, please don't be upset with your band.
I did have some restriction prior to my first fill. I had my first fill at about 6 - 7 weeks. 1cc. I felt about the same. I now have 2 ccs and feel full. 
I may even get another fill, though I no longer have to see the doc, unless I want to. Pump in loads of water when you're not eating and make sure you're getting protein in. 
I drink 2 - 3 liters a day. Exercise/walk regularly. I found this curbs the appetite, too! Be patient, I know you'll be as happy with your band as I am with mine! I L
VE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Thank you so much cheri for the reply I always see you helping people in this forum and never thought I would be so lucky to hear from you i feel you woold make a positive friend for me I am going to add you as my new friend. Today I go for my weekly appoitment to my surgeon and I am going to explain the situation but I am going to take your advise cherri I love this forum everybody is so sincere Love Kelly
You're more than welcome! I have had such a positive experience (once I was approved) that I want to share it with everyone! 
I do continue to hit weight/scale plateaus, but still see changes in my body so don't get hung up about the weight thing. It was this forum that gave me ALL of my support! I didn't get it from family or my best friend. Now, that they've seen how well it works, it's been awesome!
Good Luck with your appointment!
Add me, add me!
Muah!

Ok today i went to the doctor I have lost 7LBS in almost two weeks tha Doctor told me he is not sure yet if I need a filling I will have to start seeing him every two weeks now he tpld me starting this Friday one day a away I can have mushies I cannot wait so in the meantime I'm taking cheri's advise increase the water&make sure I have my protein and the dpctor gave me a litlle help for a few days anti anxiety medication which really has helped me so far also I will be taking longer walks while the family is eating Thank you family Love Kelly
I am 3 weeks out today and am down 30-33 lbs. Today I started to feel hunery!!. I am still trying not to eat more then I was told to and gettingin my 60grams of protein. I find when I get hungery I drink more water. This is helping. If its late at night and im getting hungery Ijust go to sleep !! LOL this works also. I am not getting my first fill till Oct8. This is my choice he wanted me to come in a week or so earlier but due to work i was not able to do that. In the meantime I am healing and doing as I am told. I dont have a scale so I cant weigh my self but I see a difference in my clothes and I have been working out 3 to 4 days a week for 30 min. Good luck
