The fill has kicked in!

Okay....so much for it taking 10 days for the fill to kick in! I had a fill two days ago and I can tell!!! I even have to really watch my bites I haven't had to do that in months.

I have to admit that I am a little worried about how tight I will get in the next 10 - 14 days. I guess we will see. Maybe this will get me just where I need to be.

For the first time I didn't schedule my next appointment. We will play it by ear. I am hoping that it will be 2-3months or more before I need to go back.

My six month banniversary is coming up. I will post pics soon. I can't believe that my next goal is the -100lb mark. So far I am down 86!!!

Hi....CONGRATS on your weight loss so far. That is GREAT. I had my 4th fill this week and I feel the difference FINALLY!!! I am so thrilled with it too. In just a few days I lost 3 pounds and don't feel the need to eat as much or as often. This is SUPER. I also got to my 25 pound mark (3 months - post op), this is wonderful. Keep up the good work!
