Mine was left empty until my appointment on 2/16. I also got gastric plication with my band so I'm sure that was another reason they waited. As for the fills I'm sure every doctor is different as well as every patient. I think I'd rather go slow and easy rather than have to have some removed.

Lap Band with Greater Curvature Plication 1/10/11, Conversion to DS 8/20/12

I had 2ccs put in at the time of surgery.  6 weeks later I had another 2ccs at my "first" fill.  I just had 1cc added on Monday - for a total of 5cc.  I am definetly feeling the restriction with this latest fill......

My scenario is the same as yours.  My band was empty when it was placed. Had to go through the four phase food plan and didn't get my first fill for about 4 to 5 weeks after surgery.  I was told that it was to allow the stomach to recover from the surgery.
