First fill next Wednesday???!!!!!!



Recommended Posts

I have my first fill on Sept. 8th. I am a little nervous, but I know I need it. I am able to finish a whole plate and just starting to feel full. I have lost 11 lbs since surgery, but it was all eithin the fist two weeks. I am hoping that this fill really gets the ball rolling for me, because as of now, I am feeling as though I may have gone through all of this for 11 lbs.:)

It's very common that people feel that way in the post op, pre-fill stage. 11lbs is good. Don't beat yourself up. Sometimes, the first fill gives you some restriction. Sometimes you have to tweak it a little more. Remember, this is for life, there is no deadline or race.

Keep your chin up!

That's 11 pounds gone for good! They say anything lost before the first fill is a bonus. I bet your first fill will make a big difference! Best of luck to you!:)

Just wait once your filled your on your way. I just had my first Monday and I too was nervous and scared not only about the injection but how my body would react.

It's been great. I feel satisfied with smaller portions and I'm not thinking about food which is a big plus.

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
