My First Fill

Finally, I get to have my first fill tomorrow. My doctor called me yesterday checking to see how I was doing. I told him I was hungry alot of the time and he said that shouldn't be so he scheduled me to come in a week early. Now I am alittle nervous about the actual procedure. He explained it all to me but I am still chicken.:paranoid

Don't be nervous, it really isn't bad at all. I was terrified when I went in for my first one, and it was so easy that I walked out of there wondering what I got myself all worked up over. Plus, the great thing about getting that first fill is the weight loss really begins from that point. You will do great, let us know how everything went after you get back.

Oh, by the way, try doing a search on fill videos. I know there are a couple people on the board who have posted videos of their fills, and you will see how it is done so you know exactly what to expect.

Thanks I am looking now for the videos. I watched the video of the actual surgery before I had mine and to be honest it didn't scare me made me think alittle of the pain I might be in afterwards but I worried for nothing it wasn't as bad as I thought so maybe the fill video will give me more info too.

They really aren't that bad, so don't be nervous. Hopefully this will help with your hunger. You will be fine.
