Fill # 4 - 4 Fills in 4 months! Let this be the one!

Posted by AngieB, Today, 10:31 AM

I've had my 1st fill and can tell no change at all. I feel as if I can eat as much as I want but I dont. I stop myself before getting to that point. I know Im eating more than I should. I cant wait to hit the so called SWEET SPOT

Sounds like it's perfect! 8#'s a month is great...I'd take that!!

Why a Chemo nurse? More experience with those kinds of needles?

Ebonymc - I understand, my fills have been progressive. I am glad I've been creeping up on my "sweet spot" but it so hard to be grateful and not impatient. Four fills and four months later.....I really hope I am there now. (not to mention $1200, bucks in fills.) Sometimes I wish my fills would be more agressive, then I think, each one I or my body went through an adjustment phase. It's been one of those waiting games for me. I wish you the best and also hope you reach your s.p. fast!

B_G - the Chemo nurse is familiar with the needles and the ports. They are similar if not the same type of ports they use for cancer patients. They have plenty of experience and would be the best choice if a bariatric surgeon/nurse was not available. Intersting huh! Learn something helpful all the time. So now when I travel, I will feel better knowing there are more people who can help me in a pickle if I need it.

You'll get there and ya 8#'s this mo. is good!

Keep it up!
