well I am not sure whether to be dissapointed or amazed..   I went to get my first fill today.   I even psyched myself up for it.... no knowing what to expect and soooo.... I got there... weighed in... a whole 56 pounds lighter than i was when i first started this thing... 1/12/09... doctor took a look at what was going on and said that I was a little weird... I asked why did he say that and he stated that... I had lost so much since banding that he didn't believe i needed a fill.   and for me to wait 6 more weeks before he would do it..... not sure if i should be dissapointed or relieved...

I know until you have one you won't know for sure, but the fill isn't that bad of a thing-so try not to worry.  You may be one of the blessed ones who never need a fill or need minimal filling-so enjoy that.  The band is there for when you do need it, and trust me, the looser you can keep it and still lose weight, the better off you will be.

I'm actually (after some ups and downs) probably a little less than I was on my second fill-so I'm pretty blessed too.

Congrats!  I say just  be happy that you have lost so much weight.  While a fill isn't a big thing, I would much rather be a little loose with my band that tight.

Brenda - that is fabulous!  You should definitely be elated!  Are you kidding me?  56 pounds since 1/12?  You are rockin' that thing!  You don't need no stinkin' fill!  Kudos to your doc for realizing that and congrats to you too.  You are obviously following all of the rules!

That is an awesome loss, especially in less then 2 months.

I think your doctor was smart to hold off on a fill for now.

Best of luck
