Had My 1St Fill Today!



Recommended Posts

Had my first fill today! I am very excited to see my restriction and start losing more weight! I have lost 23 lbs in two mths and I'm excited! I am beginning to see a lot of negativity on the forum and I do not like it lol! Be POSITIVE people! I had some restriction after surgery so they put 1.2 cc's in today and it was neat to see, not painful at all! How is everyone else doing?

Hi there! I had a fill today too, but only a really baby one (.25 cc) because I had already had some in my band. I can tell a difference already! I've lost 23 pounds too since June 5, sounds like we're on the same happy track!!!

Good for you and your positive attitude, I know I REALLY appreciate it!

Keep up the great work!

D :)

Love the positive things happening to you. I am 3 years out and I love my life and my band. When I was in the losing stage my Dr called me his star patient and encouraged me to join his support gruop. I went once and I listend to all the whining and pi--ing and moaning and said this is just not for me. I wanted positivity and all they talked about is how they wanted a pizza. Hell everyone wants a pizza. they just don't have one.

Now after losing t he weight and maintaining that loss I can have a small well chewed small slice of pizza only now I just don't care, food is just food it's not my life anymore. SO good luck to you hope you keep your positive attitude and post it ....Doesn't mean you won't have hard days you will but you are on the right track..........

      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! 😞

      Iʻm roughly 6 weeks post-op this morning and have begun to feel like a normal human, with a normal human body again. I started introducing solid foods and pill forms of medications/supplements a couple of weeks ago and it's really amazing to eat meals with my family again, despite the fact that my portions are so much smaller than theirs. 
      I live on the island of Oʻahu and spend a lot of time in the water- for exercise, for play,  and for spiritual & mental health. The day I had my month out appointment with my surgeon, I packed all my gear in my truck, anticipating his permission to get back in the ocean. The minute I walked out of that hospital I drove straight to the shore and got in that water. Hallelujah! My appointment was at 10 am. I didn't get home until after 5 pm. 
      I'm down 31 pounds since the day of surgery and 47 since my pre-op diet began, with that typical week long stall occurring at three weeks. I'm really starting to see some changes lately- some of my clothing is too big, some fits again. The most drastic changes I notice however are in my face. I've also noticed my endurance and flexibility increasing. I was really starting to be held up physically, and I'm so grateful that I'm seeing that turn around in such short order. 
      My general disposition lately is hopeful and motivated. The only thing that bugs me on a daily basis still is the way those supplements make my house smell. So stink! But I just bought a smell proof bag online that other people use to put their pot in. My house doesn't stink anymore.
