first fill in the morning!!!

I am so excited, tomorrow morning I will get my first fill! I have been so hungry lately. My doctor reassured me that the reason I'm starving is because I'm healing well. That was a relief! I feel like tomorrow this actually starts and I am so excited. I just wanted to share! Hope everyone is doing great!!

Yay for fills!

Yeah me too had my first fill today and I have to say it did not even hurt. It was the not knowing how it was going to feel that scared me more. But I had the best and I love TRUE RESULTS STAFF THEY ARE #1. :D

Have my post-op appointment and hopefully my first fill today. I'm scared to death about this, but know I need it because I'm about to chew off my arm :)

It went great, I didn't even feel it! Good luck to everyone who has a fill coming up!!!

Had my first fill today! It was so cool to see my band and watch the flow of liquid get slower :) defiantly nothing to worry about if you have one coming up it was easy.

I had my post op visit two weeks ago and my dr. said I was to swolen still. So he said three weeks and we should be good to go. So I have a week to go and then should get my first fill. Do you notice it right away? The restriction.....when you start to eat solids again? I have been told that you have to only consume full fluids for two days post fill. How has it been for any of you after your fills? Hopeful that in a week I will start to feel restriction!!

I did not notice right away, my doctor said most people don't see a huge change with the first fill. He was right. I was on liquids the day of my fill then back to my normal diet the day after. But it depends on what your doctor tells you. This is only my first fill and I go back in 3 weeks for another, I have to say I am anxious for my 2nd one. I think that will do the trick. Good luck!!
