I got my first fill today!!!



Recommended Posts

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.:)

      It has hit me today, as I sit in my chair at work that I don't have my belly sticking out to where it would hit the desk. Oh and I can cross my legs more comfortably. It amazes me just how much I have loss in inches vs actual pounds, I have lost 24 lbs all together. But I believe in inches all over about 3 inches. I am noticing more energy and have pep to my step. My skin is a lot clearer. My watch band is shorter by 3 notches. the little things are what I am noticing. When I bend over I don't feel out of breath or I am going to fall over ( weeble wobble). 
      I am having a hard time with my sweet tooth, it is very hard to not want to get some ice cream or chocolate. Candy I can do without. I have no craving really for that, just chocolate and ice cream. I have gone as far as taking Popsicle and putting them in my mixer with almond milk and making like ice cream with that/ sometimes I have added un-flavored protein powder. 
      I feel better everyday. The energy is great to have with having younger kids and being able to have the energy to keep up. 😃

      If anyone has any advice on how to make your stomach feel better after you eat something you shouldn't have or at too fast, I would GREATLY appreciate it!! It's painful on both sides of my abdomen (like to the point I'm doubled over and using a hot water bottle in addition to medicine) and I'm really nauseous (the thought or smell of food is 🤢).
