I got my first fill yesterday and it has renewed my faith in the Band. It was a short process and felt really weird. All I can think is, if they can close off my stomach all the way, then I can get the restriction I need.
I was unpleasant trying to find my port but once it was filling I was amazed. I had been down since the scale has not moved in 2 weeks. Well, last night I could eat half a cup of Soup and felt my sleeping pill go down. This is the restriction I have been hearing about. I now know what everyone was talking about.
I'm excited and can't wait for the pounds to drop off. I'll let you know!
