Had My First Fill Today

  • Popular Post

I had 2 cc put in...is it bizzare that I enjoyed the experience? Just the whole notion of having the ability to add/ take fluid out is so fascinating to me. I always had so much anxiety when I thought of getting a fill, but I already want another one...oh yeah, and I've lost 34lbs since my surgery 12/17/12..57 lbs total from pre-op diet ..also an awesome feeling...:)

Congrats! I've been wondering what does a fill actually feel like? When they put fluid in do u feel the band become tighter? I haven't even felt something around my tummy my only pain has been soreness at incision sites

I generally feel nothing but the initial needle stick with fills. Some people may be sensitive enough to feel the band tighten, but I am not one of them. Peaceful1, so happy you had a good experience. It is fascinating to me too.

I literally felt NOTHING..the only thing I felt was a slight snugness around the band. I definitely feel a little tighter, but it doesn't bother me...phew! So relived! Good luck to you!
