Will this hurt? what happens afterwards? Will I be able to eat food? how will I know when I get that full sensation? Kinda scared!! Wonder how much will they put in there?

I just had my second fill last week. For both of my fills, no pain. I was offered a numbing anesthetic and took it. I was told 48 hours of full liquids after the fills. My first fill did not really give me much of a full sensation once I went back on solid food, but my second one did. My advice is to eat very slowly as you try to feel the satiety signals. Eating too fast causes me to chow down right past "enough" into "too much".

Good luck! And don't worry if you don't notice much difference the first time. Most people need several adjustments to get to their green zone.

I had my first fill last Thursday. 3cc. No numbing stuff. Felt nothing. They gave me a glass of Water and I let out a big burp. Oops. But nurse, who had band ten years ago, laughed and said that's common.

liquid for two days then back to food. Can't say I feel too much different. Next appointment in a month.

They are pros.... No need to fret. Took two minutes

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
