slowly talking myself out of getting a fill

The excitment of getting my fill is now gone and replaced with FEAR! :lol: I just think of it and my stomach turns and gets in knots. :) I dont know if I can do this. It's been years! My family is pushing me but I have lost my big girl panties and can seem to get them on. I need the fill so I can start the long jorney to loosing all my weight..again. I am so scared! I hope I dont talk myself out of it. :)

Oh, I see. My husband is the same way. I am sorry, I feel for you. I know the fills are not fun by any means I'm not even scared of needles. When I have mine I close my eyes and there is usually a nice nurse that holds my hand or rubs my forehead that seems to help.

So yes it is unplesant, but it is worth it in the end for me it is anyway.

I have been debating on needing another fill or not. My last one was Oct 8th, but I have about decided that I do need one.

Good luck to you,

lucy

Mine are done laying done - so you should have that covered! I usually get a numbing shot, which stings but does not hurt, before they start the fill. I look up and don't look at what they are doing, I can usually feel that they are doing something - but I really can't feel anything.

You will be fine! If you need the fill, just suck it up, go in and get it done. A few minutes and you will be done! That was me givin you some tough love! LOL!!!

I just had my second fill and it didn't hurt at all. The people that give fills usually are fast. Close your eyes and exhale, it will be over before you know it. I hated the thought of getting needle in my stomach, but I didn't mind it at all. You'll do fine! After your fill you will probably be writing about how easy it really was.:wink2:
