2nd Fill

Yesterday, March 24, I had my 2nd fill since my surgery almost two years ago. My doctor told me that I would have trouble eating and my band would feel very tight so on and so forth, but I feel no different.

My stomach feels sore and I look bloated, but when I do eat I feel no different. Will it take time? I had 4ccs filled? (all together 7 in the past two years).

It's been a week since my 2nd fill, and I definitely feel the difference. It took me an hour yesterday just to eat something. And I'm getting fuller usually off of three or four bights of something which is great! If I don't eat for atleast two hours my stomach growels lol so I usually eat a little something to keep my metabolism going, but other than that its been going great!

Hopefully by this time next year I will have reached my goal weight :] Only 30 more lbs to lose!

also...I really think I need to go to support group or visit a psychologist, because I had the surgery when I was 19 years old and now that I am 21 and haven't lost weight in a while I feel lost, confused, and lonely (even though I am surrounded by loved ones).

Oh life...also, I'm graduating from SCSU in Decemeber, maybe I can find a job in this field and help people lol.
