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.

      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.

        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.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
