first fill

Yesterday i had my first fill. It was a lot easier that i thought it would be. The Doctor told me not to worry about the numbers that was his job, so i have no idea how much fluid i have in my band. It looked like i had 2cc from surgery and he put in 3cc. I am not sure it just looked like it 5cc when he pulled all the fluid out then pushed it back in. I am kind nervous about my fill. I was doing so good before. I could everything, pizza, rice, bread, just smaller amounts. My goal for this was to able to live a "normal" life and be able to lose a health amount of weight. Then maintain it! I know if i have to much fluid i can always have an un-fill. We shell see!

Mothers day is sunday and i will still be on soft foods:bored:. I am down to 219. I have going to the gym and working my butt off! I want to be down to 200 by summer! Its gonna take lots of work!

you will reach 200!! I also have about 5cc in right now. Unfortunally i have no restrction. I have my 4th fill in 2 weeks and hopefully that will do the trick.

I had my band put in Sept 2009 and since then i have given up bread and soda, i still eat pasta and rice but in small amounts. I would also like to live a normal, healthy life with regards to food. I have 3 small kids and i t seems i am always around food.

Keep going to the gym... working out seems to help me with the stress of everyday life and i do feel better during the day.

Good luck.

my goal fo rthe summer is to loose 20lbs by sept....
