Yep I finally had my first fill!! They put in 3 cc's this time and hopefully I'll start losing. The procedure was really easy. It took all of about 5 minutes and I do mine with an x-ray. You can see how the fluids flow. With 5 cc's nothing moved so we went down to 3. I'm good with that as long as I start losing. I think my fills are going to be different as I will hopefully only get two fills. The next one will be in 3 months and they would like that one to last me 5 to 7 yrs. This is just the way my Doc does it and I have to trust it will work for me.

So a "hoot hoot" for me now! I'm officially OUT of Lapband Hell.

I've missed your guys! BTW where is summrsue?

Way to go. My first fill was today and I got 4.5 cc's in a 14cc band. Back to liquids for a couple of days.

I saw my MD today for my post op check. A week late due to moms accident. He schedualed me for a fill on June 6th. So hopefully in 2 weeks i will be joining you guys.

That's awesome Deb. I was so frustrated before my fill.
