Trial and error

I had my first fill last Wednesday.. The doctor put 4 cc's in and I have a 14 cc band I guess. She said its standard to put 4 cc's in on the first fill. I don't really feel any different though, still not feeling that restriction but of course it may take time. My next appointment is on 9/28 so I'll see how I feel then and how my weight loss is.

 

I started my outdoor fitness bootcamp this morning. Wow! I work out at the gym regularly and thought I was in decent shape. This class proves that I definitely don't push my body as hard as I could. I feel a little awkward and self conscious but I'm glad I joined up and can't wait to see how my body and fitness level will transform over the next 4 weeks.

You should be very proud of yourself for signing up for a bootcamp fitness program!!! Keep sharing....Hoping one of these days I can do something like that too!

Thank you Arnetta. :) you definitely can do it, it just takes determination and a whole lot of work lol I'm so sore just after one day but I can't wait to see how strong I am and how my body looks in 4 weeks.

That's so funny that your doctor would tell you it's standard to put 4cc's in your band. I have been band for 14 months now and I only have 4.4 cc's in my band. I have another appointment tomorrow for a possible fill. Good luck.

I thought it was a little odd to put 4cc's in but I had no fluid in at all since my surgery date. My doctor doesn't put any fluid in when they put the band in. I'm not really feeling restriction and am a little hungry between meals so we'll see what happens when I go again on 9/28.

good luck with your next appointment hope it goes well! :)
