2nd fill

Yesterday I went for my second fill and it went better than I thought. I was suppose to wait 4 weeks for the next fill but called up his office staff Monday and made an appt for Tues. He did not yell at me. He was very nice and said I did the right thing. I had no restriction and was HUNGRY all the time. I was starting to feel down b/c I spent all this money. He pulled back the fluid with the needle and only 1 cc was left from the 1.75cc he put in on the first fill. He then injected 2 cc and said to keep coming back every 2 weeks until I get to the sweet spot. It did not feel uncomfortable like last time and I was not as sore in my belly area like the 1st fill. I am now on liquids and feel better about everything. I just want to have a good relationship with my doc. office staff and him. I do not want to be a pain in the ass.

At this point I am feeling hopeful that maybe within the next month or so I will get to that great spot u all talk about ~~ restriction,

CAN'T WAIT !!!

You go girl! Way to take charge and I'm hoping you'll get there soon (every 2 weeks is great!). I'm sure we're much less 'a pain in their ass' coming in for fills sooner rather than later and bitching and moaning about gaining weight at that point! -BG
