Got my first fill yesterday !!!!



Recommended Posts

I got my first fill yesterday afternoon. About 6:30 last night I had a bowl of Soup at Applebee's, and did not eat anything else until 12 noon today. I met my mother at Zaxby's for dinner at around 5 PM and was not able to eat anything!! I tried one french fry ( not good, I know) and felt like I had stuffed myself. I now know I should not anything unless I am really hungry. Is it normal to eat so little and feel stuffed?

Hi Donna. Do you know how much Fluid he put in your fill? I also got my first fill yesterday. The doctor said she put in 1.7 cc's and said "Now you should feel some restriction." But I was able to eat today. I had 5 oz. of fish for dinner. I was just wondering if your first fill was alot more than 1.7 cc's.

Wow, Donna! I am soooo jealous! I had my first fill on Monday [3ccs] and I'm not feeling a thing...no restriction at all. How much was your fill? Did they put any in during surgery? I go back on the 31st for another fill and hopefully I'll have the same results as you are experiencing!

You may need to watch...eating so little isn't good, too few calories equals no weight loss. Keep an eye on it for a few days, you may just be a tad too tight.

I, too had my first fill yesterday.

They put 3 cc in at the surgery and the Doctor added one more yesterday.

I had my surgery July 25. I felt slightly restricted before and can feel the added liquid, too and feel less hungry.

I think I could eat with no problems, but I will stay on soft foods (soups) for a few more days. Well, I had a slice of an apple. Chew, chew, chew and I was fine.

I sure would not feel stuffed from one french fry.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
