Don't Fear the Fill



Recommended Posts

I went to get my fill this morning and man was it fast. I thought it would take longer than it did, but I was out of there in less than 10 minutes. The fill part was sooo quick. I was so surprised. Looking at the fluoroscopy was pretty cool too!!

Yeah, the chicken in me feared the fill too, and then after my first one I realized that much like the surgery there was nothing to worry about. You are right Brickgirl, watching the floro was cool and it totally distracted me from the needle :-)

I just had my first fill yesterday too and I was scared sick. I cannot believe how easy it was!! I was in and out in 10 mins as well. I only got 2 cc's which I wish I got more but as the saying goes "Slow and steady wins the race!" So I will just be patient! Good luck!

I only have 2cc's in my band too. The fill was kind of creepy feeling, but really not a big deal. :rolleyes2:

      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! 😞
