Fills DO work, if YOU work with it.

I have 4.8cc in my band for my first fill. Today is the first day I'm allowed to eat soft solids

after being on liquids for the first 24 hours, then graduating to mushies yesterday.

We went to Olive Garden for my younger brother's graduation dinner and I ordered off the kids

menu of chicken with broccoli. I had a few bites of the Zuppa Soup that came along with it (eating most

of the kale in the Soup instead of the potatoes) and barely took four bites before I was completely full

and satisfied.

Maybe it's my honeymoon stage, but I have tuned in with my body alot since surgery and I

am learning so much about when to stop eating, when to eat, etc.

I know fills will work if you give it time. And everyone is different...someone with the same amount

of cc fill may not agree with me, but I'm just sharing a few positive thoughts for those who are curious about

band fills.

Happy Banding :0)

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
