My doctor put 4cc's in on my surgery date. My first fill he added one and yesterday another one cc, so six total. I'm on liquids today so I'm unsure about restriction yet. 4 cc's was enough until about mid March, so the first week in April I had my first fill. I really didn't notice much difference from 4 to 5. I'm hoping 5 to 6 makes a difference. If not, I'm scheduled to go in in another month. I did still lose 4 pounds from the first week in April to May 4th, but I was able to eat more than one cup of food and found that I was still hungry. We will see what 6 does.

Hello Everyone, Did all of you get a 2nd fill when you guys hit a plateau?

It was very weird for me. Nothing made a major diff w fills until I hit THE ONE, it was prolly only 1 cc, but it had a HUGE impact. I could not stop wt falling off, and I stayed that way for a yr. So YES, one fill can make a big difference. :)

I'm really not seeing much restriction with this last fill. I started journaling today to see what I'm actually eating, calorie, fat, and Protein. If I don't see much of a change by 5/31 when I go back I will show the dr.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
