I Really Need Another Fill

I have an appointment on the 21st, but I hate to wait that long when I know I need a fill now. I will be patient, but I have gained a few pounds. It is so hard to get it off, I hate to gain back any. Sigh, the process where you are not yet in the green zone is hard. I do so well, then things loosen up and I stop losing then I even gain a little. I hate those mornings on the scale and would gladly football that darn scale through the house. 001_tt2.gif Yes, I can be very childish at times. Anyway I will be patient and try not to damage the rotten scale until the 21st then I hope I will get a fill.ok.gif

I know how you feel. I finally got a fill today, my last one was late Sept. My phys asst didn't want to give me one before because she thought I was too full already. I am , or was 6.5 in a 10 band. So she put me on phentermine for the last 3 months, which helped on the days that I took it. But I am ready for the band to keep my hunger at bay. About 2 weeks ago at my support group meeting I was telling the dr how I was feeling and he agreed I needed a fill. Once he told me that I was dying to get in there! Anyways, I am just a year out and still waiting for my green zone, hang in there!

I would call right away! don't wait for that appointment. This is your band, and you are in control. the last thing you need to feel is out of control. I am telling you this from personal experience. I was in the same boat. I gained 2 pounds, realized I was eating and eating way too much, so I called and got an appointment immediately. I was practically in tears at my doctors office, he gave me 1cc, and I feel sooooo much better now!

If you can get a sooner appointment, do it!
