Looking forward to my 2nd fill!



Recommended Posts

My first fill didn't really give me much restriction and I'm anxious to get my second one on the 26th!!! Hoping to start seeing some weight fall off after this next fill!!!

Best wishes. My fills were about 4 weeks apart. It takes more 4 most of the time. Take it slow- and steady, they win the race.

I've lost consistently over the last 10 months, but didn't feel good restriction until the 6th fill. Every one is so different with this. There are some people who didn't even need a fill. Some had a fill during surgery. Others needed multiple fills. Patience is definitely a virtue with weight loss and getting into the GREEN ZONE! Best Wishes!

I can't tell if I need another fill or not. I can eat certain things like salads without a problem. I can eat about three ounces of solid Protein like ground meat without a problem but then I feel a soft stop. Other foods like pork chops get stuck right away. I'm thinking I will wait until my scheduled appointment in July to decide, but I will probably stay put. Salads and bread may be sliders for me, so I want to start focusing on protein and veggies only right now. I've lost weight this month but it bounces up and down. I'm on my second fill and have 7 in a 14cc band.

I don't think I really belong on here because I am done, but I feel such a need to tell anyone to be cautious. EAT only what you can for awhile and introduce things slowly. I could never get to that pt even now, PLEASE PLEASE be cautious and no matter if your Dr of filler puts pressure on you to try new things, CAUTION. I am the product of what goes wrong! :) God Bless all

      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! 😞
