1Stfill...how Much Did Your Dr Put In The 1St Fill



Recommended Posts

My surgeon added 2 cc at time of surgery, then after 8 weeks added another 2 which we took out 0.5 given I was having trouble keeping the Water he gave me to drink down.

My fill was today my nurse said she always starts off with 3cc. So I had 3cc. It seemed like a lot to me. But I look forward to the restriction

My first was 2.8cc two weeks ago and it feels as if I eat more now than I did before getting the fill. I go back next week on the 26th for a second and I really hope I get some restriction .

My first fill was 5! It worked for me and I lost 35 pounds. My second fill was 7 and I lost another 15. That was April 2012. I got 8 put in an then went down to 7.5 because I was having trouble eating anything. Yesterday I went back to 8cc and I hope it works for another 50! (And with exercise!!)

My first fill was Sept 5 and I got 6 cc. At this moment I feel like it is not enough cause I can eat larger portions and I don't feel satisfied. I go back in 4 weeks.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
