2nd Fill Today

Went back in today to get another fill. I wanted more than he gave me, but he was really concerned that I would be over filled and then suffer the weekend. This time since I knew what to expect I was less nervous and the needle wasn't anything more than a tiny quick pinch. He filled me to 5.7cc so lets see how this will work! I stopped at Wendy's and got a baked potatoe and a junior frosty to sample both. I was only able to eat about 4 tablespoons of potatoe and about half an ounce of the frosty. YIPPPPEEEE....I hope it stays this way! I am eating watermelon for dinner and then off to the gym. The fill was a good thing but the rest of the day has been shit. Husband got a speeding ticket on the way there and then bad news from our attorney regarding his child custody battle. MY GOD am I sick of all this crap. I am trying so hard to focus on me, me, me so I don't go into a tail spin. Good thing I can't eat much or I totally know i would be on a binge on my drug of choice....FOOD. Instead I am headed to the gym to try and sweat out some of this frustration. :bored:

    it seems you are getting close to your "sweet spot'. I have had 4 fill and have 6.6 CC and still have no restriction. I am trying my best to stay away from bad food but i am hungry and can eat well over 1 cup of food per meal.

    I am working out more than i have ever have.

    Good luck to you!

    I think i do have some restriction again, FINALLY. I did for the first 2 weeks after surgery, but not again til now. After the second fill I regained some faith again although i am hungry as we speak, i am fighting myself on having a little something to eat or go to bed and sleep the hungry pain off. Today i ate half of a salsbury steak weight watcher meal and felt plenty satisfied. Had a healthy dinner measured it out to 5 ounces and ate it all... felt satisfied. All day until now i have been happy and satisfied. i guess that means i need to start going to bed sooner??? Keep working out, I know that is what is helping me right now. Can't you go get another fill? I guess I am lucky because my Doc is only an hour away and it's only $25 for a fill. (except for now it's free til 3 months post-op) Good luck to you!!
