first fill

Well they put 3ccs in my band 30 minutes ago. Glad its over. I had 4ccs day of surgery so I am 7ccs total in my 10cc band. I had some scare tissue and the only discomfort I had was when she had to dig a little thru that scar tissue to find the port. Ugh..I already feel the restriction but its probably from the swelling. I had a lot of bleeding when she pulled the needle. The needle was an 18 gauge needle and was 6" long in case anyone wanted to know the size and I layed flat on a table with my hands behind my head and I had to do a "mini crunch" to push my port to the surface for her to access it. I am sore now but can function as usual. My doctor has me on liquids for breakfast mushies for lunch and solids for supper today and that's it....have a great day to all....

I went for my first fill a week ago.....there was only 1 cc in band from surgery date of 11/29/2012 and they added only 2 cc's last week. So with only 3 cc's I'm not feeling much restriction at all. Are you feeling it at 7cc's? Thus I'm not seeing any weight loss yet either.....:(

I am really restricted but it might change after swelling goes down. I could only eat 1/4C veggies and 3Tsp of ground hamburger meat and I was full and it lasted 5 and 1/2 hours...I was shocked...hope it lasts...
