6 weeks after my surgery I had my first fill - didn't notice any difference
A month later had a second fill - didn't notice any difference
A month later had a third fill - didn't notice to much of a difference, only once I felt uncomfortable.
The weight was coming off, little by little.  And I was happy with any weight coming off.
 
Then came the 4th fill - (a total of 5cc in the band) and holy moly!  I feel it now!!!!  I have to eat incredible slow, and chew my food until there is not much to swallow.  It's a lot harder now.  Things are constantly uncomfortable, but this is what it's all about. 

I have a scheduled follow-up appointment in 2 weeks and I am sure there will be a difference in weight loss.  I am down 2 pants sizes, it's happening and I am so excited!!!

The outcome - 6 months and 40 pounds!  Yippee!!!!
