First fill today - nervous!



Recommended Posts

I have my first fill today and am really nervous. I have lost 40lbs since surgery and am nervous to rock the boat! Should be interesting to see what the doc has to say!

My story is similar and I'm nervous too. But it will all be fine. That's why we went through all this, right? Congrats on your weight loss though. You've done so good! :)

Thanks all - in talking with my surgeon and nutritionist, we opted against the first fill for now. Going back in 3 wks to check in on hunger levels/need for a fill.

Good, now stop worrying, it causes stress which is known to cause eating! LOL

That was me yesterday, but it was okay. It didn't hurt. Although I have been very careful with eating and drinking. We will see if it makes things any better. Will probably take several before I notice it. I hope all goes well next time you see the doc and don't worry. My doc made it very easy and pain free.

      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'. ???

        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!
