I have a Fill appointment this week...



Recommended Posts

I finally have another fill appointment this week and I am just not looking forward to it. I hope to actually get the fill, because even though I can go for quite awhile without eating sometimes, I'm hoping for more restriction. I only have about 3cc's in my 10cc band. ...but, I also don't like feeling uncomfortable like I do after a fill. Last time the PA had a little trouble with finding the spot on the port to inject the saline.

I'd really like more restriction, because it has been a struggle the last couple of months. I'd like my weight loss to start coming off a little faster again. Yes, I do exercise everday for about 45 minutes, with the exception of the weekend, when I usually do just a lot of squats, stretches, arm weights & some walking.

I think I need a little encouragment to make sure I stick with making the best food choices I can.

I hope your fill goes well and there isn't any trouble finding the port. What do you generally eat? Are you hoping for more restriction so you'll eat less or more restriction so your choices are limited? Either way, I'll keep my fingers crossed for a good experience.

I try to eat healthy, although I probably do eat a little more starchy foods than I should. I'm working on cutting back on that. I think generally I do pretty good with my food choices.

Although I don't feel that I overeat, I think I'm hoping for more restriction so that I'll eat less. I normally eat a cup of food. I have a lot of trouble thinking of only eating 3/4 cup of food for every meal.

Thanks for your input.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.
