Good luck! Don't work yourself up too much, heh, it's totally anti-climatic (or at least it was for me! :bananadoggywow:)

Hi Mia!

Remember to drink liquids for at least 24 hours after the fill.

And I agree with Janet, too much hype over fills. After you get one, you'll see that its really NO big deal!

Good luck!

You were right it was anti climactic, LOL. It was cool to watch and I felt the band tighten. He had to poke me twice. He put 1 cc in my 4cc band. I am on full liquids till dinner time. My doc said I can eat a meal for dinner. He was going to put another .5cc but he thought the way the barium hung up in the stomach before it passed down was good for now. Then he said in 2 weeks if things are going down to easily he will get me in for another fill. He has invited me to a meeting for WLS to be a spokes person for the band. This particular meeting will focus on the band. Then I will be getting a band only support group going.
