I had my fill 2 days ago and I too was so scared thinking it was going to hurt, she made me do a kind of stomach crunch and I did not even feel the needle. She just covered with a band aid and off I went. Did notice yesterday I had weird feeling in my stomach, not a stomach ache from eating just a small amount of pain.

Well I am 3 weeks post op and had my first check up yesterday and to my surprise they did a fill at same time. I was scared and anxious but she made me lie down and lift my head up, she found the port easy and it did not hurt at all. I did u tube the fill procedure before I had mine done so I knew what I was in for. They only put in 1 cc but said to come back in 2 weeks for another. Since being banded I have lost 5kg, started bikrim yoga and walking and feel awesome!!

I was banded on the 15th and stayed overnight in hospital then at 9am discharged and 10am I had job interview then started day after that. I feel great too except where my port is. Unhappy that I have to miss out on 4 weeks of netball but hoping to start aqua aerobics this week some time. I am easily drinking fluids of all sorts and lost around 4-5 kg. looking forward to the future!!

I everyone!! My name is Catherine and I am in Australia, I was banded on the 15th may and I have not had shoulder tip pain but bad bad gas pain and I feel like I want to explode. Very excited for my new journey and after a rough 2 years I am looking forward to a new me. Not feeling hungry just very sore. My surgeon said I was easiest surgery he had done in a while. Nice to meet u all and at moment your stories and updates are inspiring and helpful. Xx
