Unhappy Not working

I have had 2 fills in the past 3 months and I still am not losing any weight. I'm constantly hungry and I don't get full very easily. I have a 10 cc band which currently has 4 cc in it. Is anyone else experiencing anything like this? I now have to pay out of pocket which is almost $200 a fill. It's salt water in there! I wish I could just do it myself.

go back for another fill. Also are you a diabetic? If your sugars are not under control it will make you hungry....Also there is head hunger

Good luck

Smile dont worry

Hi - just had my 2nd fill... (1st was 3.5ml) and no restriction.. now 5.5ml and finally have some effect! - I was convinced it was leaking or in the wrong place! so very grateful it is actually working!
hang in there ..your next fill you should get some restriction..

I read everywhere it's different for each person (didnt believe it, convinced It would not work for me (I'm THAT lucky!!))....... but now I do!

good luck

Hi, I've had three fills and after the third fill I had some restriction for about a week and now i'm hanging out for my fourth fill. It just takes some of us longer than others. The initial weight loss is just us doing the hard work, Then it's a matter of when the fills take over and kick in and help us on out journey to the new thinner us
