Okay I am getting my first fill later today, and I am terrified. :smile2: I have been reading all of these threads about the bad experiences people have had getting fills. I should not have read them because now I am anxious. Please help, what should I expect. Hopefully I am just overreacting and it won't be bad. :wub:

Okay Jack, I did it and it wasn't that bad at all. I had 2cc's put in. I'm well on my way:thumbup:

yettia it seems like u were banded just yesterday and now you r getting a fill? Wow! U go girl

so do u feel a diffrence yet>

April you are right, it does seem just like yesterday. The time is flying by. I don't feel really different yet. Well, since I've had the first fill, the band is really tight in the morning. Not having much restriction though, so I really have to watch what I eat and try really really hard to utilize portion control. My doc told me to come back in 2 weeks for another fill if I didn't feel any restriction. So I'll be making that appointment this week. Trust me when I say, it is not as easy as some people on this site makes it seem. You really do have to work hard at making this thing work. The band is just a tool, really it is. It's no magic wand.
