First Fill under my belt FINALLY...



Recommended Posts

This coming monday I will be 8 weeks post op, and I just today got my first fill... I was TERRIFIED of having it done, I thought it was going to hurt like none other.... But it actually just felt as if some one had pinched me in the tummy....

They put 5 cc's into my 11 cc band.... and I am scheduled to go back in 2 weeks for another fill....Im not afraid anymore...

I cant wait to see the numbers on the scale moving again... YAYYYY:lol:

Awesome. Fills aren't really that big of a deal. Just be careful the first few days after. Some foods might not be as cooperative. I've had 2 fills so far. I'm up to 7.4 in a 14cc band.

I just had my first fill on Wednesday at 5 weeks post op. I was also nervous at first but it went smoothly. I don't go back until 4 more weeks. I had 1 cc in during surgery and only had 1/2 cc on Wednesday for a total of 1.5 cc in my 10 cc band! I am so hungry still! I am more hungry than I was prior to having the fill. Is this normal?

I go in on Sept 10th for my first fill and I can't wait! I HOPE my doctor will put in at least 3 or 4 because Im soooo hungry all the time. 1 or 2 cc's probably won't do anything for me.

Hi Amber,

My 1st fill is the 1st and he told me they typically put in 3cc's, I have no idea how big my band is, do you? I am starting to get really hungry as well, but really make the right food choices and my running has really made me feel good. How are you doing?

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
