So wish me luck people's I am FINALLY going in for my first fill tomorrow morning!! I cannot believe it has been 7.5 weeks since my surgery and I have managed to last this long without gnawing on my arm!!!

Please little Kaylee (my band) give me some relief and work for a period of time to give me restriction for a while!!:w00t: I need to get this thing kickstarted again....it has been too long between losses!!

Well I do feel a little restriction today though being on liquids this time and actually feeling ok in myself I think I am getting hungrier quicker...then I don't know if it is in my head!...I can't wait to eat something a little more solid! :thumbup:

The nurse did my fill. She asked if I minded, I replied "So long as you are a good shot I don't mind!!" It didnt' hurt and was over very quick!

She then said book in for your next fill between 3-4 weeks. I booked in at the 3 week mark :biggrin:

Doc was in a long consult and they usually do a quick face time and a hi how are you going on your first fill....they said you can do it next time if you don't want to wait...I was like great! out of there and off to work!

I got 2cc's put in my 10cc band!

Oh and a NSV today...one of the guys at work has been sick and off for the past 8 weeks. He came in today and when I walked in he said hey you're looking great you've lost a bit of weight *Really loudly* I said yes I have...then some of the other guys start saying "oh yeah I guess because I see you every day it isn't as obvious!!" then my friend who knows what I have had done said and your pants are getting SO LOOSE!! hehe maybe it is time I raided the wardrobe again!

I'm going in this morning to the doctor - I think I'll have my first fill, but who knows. I can't wait till the conversation on my food diary after three days on a church retreat. My goodness, the food, the Snacks - unreal!

So are the ones getting a fill today the last ones to get one? It sure feels that way.

Glad to hear the fill was uneventful.

I did have my first fill - 3 cc's in a 14cc band. Very uneventful, but restriction remains to be seen. I'm worried about having to take small bites, I've gotten away with no eating changes in that regard up to now. Well, I guess it's time to change the habit...

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      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! 😞
