How do you or did you feel??

I had my first fill this past Saturday. I don't seem to feel restriction like I thought i would. I have an appetite, and I eat anything I want...not what I expected. Is this normal? I am also feeling the port when I bend over, again is this normal? I am back at the gym and feel good, but when I try yoga, I think I feel the port. Can someone please tell me how they felt after the first fill? I was filled to 3cc. I really don't want to go in for a second fill already. Happy Thanksgiving!!

Had my first fill...

On Saturday Nov. 15th, I had my first fill. I must admit I was hoping he (Doctor) wouldn't give me an adjustment because I have been losing at least a pound a week, since surgery Oct 13th I have lost 10 pounds.

The entire appointment was about 15 minutes. I had 2 days of liquid and 1 day s

3 weeks post op

Today is week 3 post op and I am feeling much better. I am back at the gym but only on the treadmill and walking very slowly. I called and spoke to a nurse yesterday (impossible to get someone to talk to you or even return any of my calls!) I wanted to know if I should still be feeling uncomfortable. I still feel aching in my port area, not pain but ache feeling. I was told that I would have this feeling for another 2 weeks. Does anyone else still feel like they need to support their port a

3rd day of Post Op.

Hello new friends and supporters!! Thanks for the comments, I appreciate all the information I can get. I feel better today, my neck and back still hurt and my incision is sore, but not too bad. I had my first shower since surgery today, It felt great to wash my hair, though it was a quick shower because I started to feel a little light headed. I sleep on my belly and on my side, so sleeping on my back all night is not very comfy, but I am not complaining. I don't feel like I was very prepa

I am on my 2nd day of post op.

I had my surgery on Oct. 13th. I went home tired, sore and I had a hard time breathing. I felt horrible yesterday with a low grade fever and my breathing was shallow. I feel much better today! I am breathing better and my incision is sore but not too bad. My neck and back are killing my, I think it is gas pain. I am walking a little but not too much, I don't want to push it. I haven't had any protein, didn't know I was suppose to. I have been drinking water and sugar free jello and chick
