1st fill~ doing just fine

Hi all, Happy friday!

I got my first fill on Wednesday and it is working just fine :thumbup: - i have an 11cc band and he put 5cc's in - i thought that was a bit aggressive but you best believe i ate very little yesterday. i have noticed that it is tighter in the morning- i get full of of a cup of yogurt now.. yesterday i only ate 870 calories but i got in 64 grams of protein. i also had a nutrition class on Wednesday - the office wants us to gradually add things back into our diet - unfortunately i have been eating veggies and some of the things that they said should come later on. I met a bunch of great gals that were all banded around the same time as me and we all had our first fill together (making it a bit easier).:biggrin: i was on liquids for the rest of the fill day and back to regular food on Thursday.

I have lost 34lbs so far and it feels good. i am no longer snoring when i sleep! i realized that i don't wake myself up anymore during the night. i am down to an 22 in pants and my bra size has decreased. - Overall i feel really good about my self and my decision to get banded.:thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

Sounds like you are doing great. Keep up the good work. My first fill was also 5cc. I have had three and am up to 7.5 now. Much more aggressive than I have seen on this web sight but so far so good and though the loss is slow, it is steady and I feel good about where I am. God bless!
