Fill number 1 is in the bag...

Or in the band as the case may be. That was one of the weirdest things I've ever felt! It was a piece of cake but felt very very odd. I apparently have a 14 cc band now complete with 4.4 cc of saline. I'm on liquids for 2 days then mushies for 2 days then I get to take the next step up and start MEAT...ground meat but still, meat, woohoo!! I have restriction today and would love love love it if it stayed with me but am guessing I'll be like most everyone else and lose this wonderful feeling of fullness in the near future. Next fill (if needed) scheduled for Feb. 15, my doc will not fill before 4 weeks, even if you're starving won't do it. Life is good, on to the next stage of the journey! WOOHOO!:thumbup:

I also have a 14cc band; currently at 6.4cc. I believe I'm at my sweetspot. I had a fill on 09/12/09 which put me at 6.2 and I went in last Saturday because it's been awhile since I seen the doctor. I had lost 30lbs. I didn't think I needed a fill but the Dr. gave me .2 because he said it should loosen with this weight loss and also I'll probably wont be back for another 3 months. (unless I have no weight loss then sooner) Good luck!
