My first fill

Today's first fill/adjustment appointment went well. I laid down on this table and the doctor injected a numbing agent. That stung a wee bit but not bad. He inserted something - maybe a needle(?) and then made that table vertical so that I would be standing. I drank some of the white liquid and he filled me completely so it was just sitting there above the band; eww!

 

I felt like I had bad heartburn! Then he opened it up to watch the liquid go through. We did that routine a couple times and I also drank some water. He took whatever it was out and I got some gauze and a band-aid. Tada, bye bye. It was maybe 10-15 minutes.

 

For lunch, I had a protein shake, half of this small pudding cup, and half of a cranberry juice and was FULL. Whew! I can definitely tell I'm adjusted now!!!
