Just got done reading some of the posts on Banders Hell but I am not able to find anything (yet) that explains just how long should you wait between fills?  I had surgery 12/22 and my first fill (4cc) on 1/13, but I can still eat and drink the same as before surgery.  I know it can take time to find the "sweet spot" and I am definately making better food choices and I have started walking on the treadmill 5 days a week so there is some weight loss, but I worry that it just will not be enough.  I am almost constantly hungry (LOUD tummy noises, not head hunger) and I am trying really hard to be good.  The doc said it would be time for another fill if I met the following 4 conditions- if you do not feel restriction, if you have not lost any weight in 4 weeks, if you have trouble controlling your portions, and if you have a gnawing hunger.  Well, so far 3 out of 4 - do I have to wait 3 more weeks then?  I can guarantee that I will lose 1-2 lbs/week simply because I walk so much on the treadmill.  I am so frustrated!  I know it is a tool and I know it is up to me to make it work, and I do not expect to lose the 70lb overnight but I assumed I would have more of a head start.  Please help!
