How do you know when you need a adjustment? My surgery was April 19. I have not had an adjustment yet. I think I am eating to much food but am still losing weight. I have lost 38 pounds so far. Met my first goal to be under 200 pounds on Monday. I have an appointment on Aug 25 for an adjustment but the last time I had one I was still losing so they said I didn't need an adjustment. I do get hungry between meals if I go longer than 4 or 5 hours before I eat. But sometimes I don't want to eat at all. Just wanted to vent. Find out if someone else has experienced the same things.
Hi!
Congratualtions on losing 38! That is awesome. Pretty much if you are eating solid protein and not getting hungry for 4-5 hours you won't need a fill but every doctor is different. Talk to your doctor about your progress and together you should be able to figure out if you need a fill. Good Luck!

You can't measure your achievements with someone else's yardstick!
