I got my first fill today and OMG, I feel sooooooo much better! My stomach was growling even as I was waiting in the waiting room. It did not hurt a bit. I looked directly at the ceiling and did not even feel the numbing shot. I feel full and I feel great! :Banane37: Back to liquids for a few days!!! :biggrin2:

Thanks for the update Zeama. I am having my first fill next week 8/19 and I'm kind of nervous, but looking forward to it at the same time. My hunger kicked in about 4 weeks post op, and I am hoping that the fill will curb my appetite. Glad that all went well. Good luck on your weightloss journey!

zeama I had my first fill today 8/15. Do you know how much they added,and have you had any trouble eating? Oh, I forgot you are on liquids. My Dr. doesn't make us do liquids unless you have a problem. I had a protein bar and I felt really good for about 3-4 hours. I have 3.5 put into my 10cc. band. you are doing great, lol

I had 3cc put in and I am doing great. I have not had any problems and am loving the fact that I am not as hungry. I did go out to eat with some friends the other night and I had a bowl of brocolli and cheese Soup and I could not finish it. I LOVE the band!!! I wish I could have gotten this years ago!

Oh that's wonderful news... I can't get a fill yet because I am going on holiday in 4 weeks time and my surgeon won't do it until I get back. Which is fine by me.
