I went in today for my 4 month check-up. I got on the scale to see that I'm down a total of 46lbs since surgery. I'm WAY excited about that.

I also have not had any fills due to the fact I have had restriction with my empty band right from the start. Today was no different so I wasn't given a fill.
 
I know eventually I'll have to get one and maybe not because I'm eating more than 3 or so ounces or that I can't go long without eating but because obviously the more weight you lose the more the band can loosen up around the stomache. So when that time comes I wil be ok it's just I'm happy to be going this long without any fills.

Anyway just wanted to shoot a quick update since I have not updated in 5 weeks (since last appointment).

Wow, you are one of the lucky ones who got restriction right away. That's great. Keep up the good work! Your weight loss is great.

Congrats to you Mommie !!!  46 pounds and no fill that is awesome  

I havent had a fill yet since my surgery and my 7 months is coming up at the end of this month :o) 

There is one guy in our support group got his surgery 2 hrs ago lost over 200 pounds and got his first fill about three months ago and it was only like 1 cc .

Congrats you are doing so well and going so long without a fill :o)

Thank you very much vlp1968 and Steelerfan1. I really appreciate the words of encouragement.

I'm very excited and hope that I can continue to keep going without a fill, at least for awhile longer :)

That is crazy yet awesome about the guy in your support group.
