Next fill

Well, I go in for my 2nd fill on Monday. I'm a little nervous since the 1st one was kinda hard. My port is crooked so the Dr had to go in at an angle to get it. It was quite painful. I hope this one is easier! I also hope I feel more restriction with this one. I've hit a plateau, darn it! Had a rough couple of weeks. The dog died, had a big fight with a family member and work sucked. Time to get back on track. Stress is still a kicker!

Wow now that is a lot on your plate at once. STRESS makes me sick, my band gets tighter and that is the worst feeling. I am not sure why stress does that to me. A little argument and I cannot eat I need total relaxation at a meal or I have to starve and go eat alone some place. I went out to dinner the other night the band was loud and it was stressful I could not eat ended bring the entire meal home. It sucked. I am sorry about the loss of Man's best friend, this is a sad time. You will need time to morn the loss of your pet. So not fun!!!!

I hope your second fill goes better. I do remember my first was a bummer and the second one was a breeze. I am sure it will go well for you. Best wishes imaluckydog

The 2nd fill sucked worse than the first! My doctor couldn't get it so I have to go in and have port-revision surgery on Monday. That kinda sucks too but atleast my fills should be easier from now on. Wow...I'll be glad cuz I don't want to do the "search and not find" method again! I broke out in a cold sweat and almost fainted. Lyckydog, I know what you mean about stress. If I get too stressed I just can't eat very good. I noticed it when things got crazy at work. I could go the whole day and not eat anything, I wasn't even a little bit hungry. It's nuts, I don't remember being that way before being banded. The good news is that we adopted a dog. He's an adorable little black pug. He fits in like he's been here his whole life. I thought that since we adopted our boxer who passed away that we should adopt again in her honor. Roscoe deserved a good life. Now he's getting tons of love and everything a dog could want. We are still mourning our Zowie, but getting Roscoe was a blessing. I'll let you know how the revision goes...hopefully as smooth as silk!
