  • HOw was it? I go for my first fill next week and I'm a little nervous. Full-blown surgery? No problem. Injection in the office? I'm jumpy. Go figure!

  • Just back from my first fill. Piece of cake....ehm, that may not be the best example here, huh? NO pain, a LITTLE pressure, but quick and easy. Now, let the games begin. . . .

  • Make sure you go from liquids to mushy before solids. Some times people need to move a little slower so make sure you listen to your body.

Please report back? Was the fill painful ?

My Dr. uses some "freezy spray" to numb the area before injection, so no pain.

They numbed me so it wasn't painful just felt some slight pressure and that was it, lol

I like that!

I had my first fill 4/17. There was zero pain and my doc didn't use anything to numb the area. It was a breeze.

I am waiting now to receive my first fill ... Little nervous

I had an unfill 24 post op it was brutal because of the swelling she had trouble gaining access into the port, only to find out the dr that did the unfill was not the dr that did my surgery and was unaware that I had a hernia repair so the rock I was feeling stuck in my chest was due to that not fluid in the band.

Well that wasn't so bad I didn't get any numbing cream but it went quick I was just wondering will I start to fill more of a restriction when I'm able to go back in solids in a couple days ?

I had my first fill last Friday and I am definitely full quicker. Lost 5 pounds over the weekend on liquids. Did mushies until dinner then had a taco salad with no problem. I am staying active walking and counting my calories to maximize my loss into summer.

I would sooo love to be in onederland by June.

I have my first fill on Friday thanks to you all I feel less nerves:-)
