First fill

So I got my first fill..

2.5 cc's. She put in 3 and took .5 back out.

It didn't hurt, which I didn't really think it would..thank God.

LOL

Down about 3 lbs since the fill a week ago.

I think it would have been more, but we went out of town for the weekend

and I ate Mexican..which went down really well..I only at the meat and veggies, and some salsa on the side.

I was worried about it ..no need!

 

LOL

But overall I didn't do bad, didn't gain just stayed the same..

so this week I'm going to work harder at it..

Now this blog was enjoyable to read. I am going for my first fill on Thursday and you make it sound like a breeze. Some of these stories the others say make me scared but I liked your blog. Thank you, Judy

I know I was so scared when I went in for my fist fill. However, I found out that I didn't even "feel" it. I laughed as it went so smoothly. Glad you went great for you too!

Ditto - just a small prick and a few seconds later it's done. I get my 3rd fill tomorrow (2.5 cc in band right now)...How are you guys doing with the weight loss? I was banded on Nov 19th and I'm not losing very quickly...Up & down and not sure why since my portions are so much smaller from before getting the band...I thought by now it would be falling off.

I was wondering what a "fill" would feel like? I suppose it won't be until at least a month post op? I am only 1 wk. post op now. :blink:
