Troubles anyone??? Get Saline 4 weeks after surgery???

Oh my!!! I didn't know until I went to the doctor the other day that you don't get saline in your port until 4 weeks after surgery. My doctor said he gives you time to heal. Now I know why I have been getting hungry. I go in next week for my first fill and I can't wait. I'm worried I will gain back some of my weight that I lost. I have been eating regular food, since I don't have any saline in. I feel hungry often. I'm so sad right now. Anyone else having trouble out there???

Hey don't give up I went thru the same thing. It is very hard but you have to let your stomach heal that is why the dr want s you to wait. I thought I had gained to but instead has lost 15 lbs. I now have lost 20 and had my first fill on oct 12. I was 360 when banded I thought the weight would come off real fast but is is slow. I get very depressed because I want to be thin I just take it day by day and keep my spirits up. Are you exercising yet? take care

I went to see my doctor today. I have an infection in 4 out of 5 incisions. He gave me some meds. I have to wait until Monday, Nov. 20th to get my first fill. I have lost 20lbs so far. It's just, the week after surgery was great! I wasn't hungry at all. But now, I get hungry often, especially when I have to fix dinner for the family. I would love for the weight to fall off. Did you loss weight fast as soon as you got your first fill? Yes, I have been walking a few months before surgery and now I'm walking again and lifting some weights. I don't want my arms getting to flabby. Ok, well they are already flabby, but don't want them to get worse. Melissa
