Hungry all the time after Lap Banding

I had the Lap Banding done 4 weeks ago and I am hungry all the time! I can eat quite a bit and I am only loosing about 1 lb. a week. I am concerned that this is not working correctly. I will be going in for a fill in 2 weeks. Has anyone else experienced this?? Does it get better with fills?? I am eating less that I used to but I can still eat quite a bit!

Hi Jenny, I don't know much about the lap band to offer advice either. Did you know that there is a lap band message board? Click on "Communities" at the top of the page and scro;; down and you will see it. Good Luck. I'm sure everything will be ok. I know lap banders have to make a make frequent trips to the Doc's office for fills. You'll do fine. Keep us posted on your journey. ~Jeanne -76 lbs
