So, I had a bad second fill experience. I'm over it now, but have no restriction at all. Can't get my third fill until the first week of March. Here are some things I'm thinking of doing to get through this and still lose some weight. Any other suggestions are GREATLY appreciated!

1. I am planning healthy dinners for this week so I don't just do carry out and get something unhealthy.

2. I'm going to add an extra day of working out.

3. I am not going to eat after 8pm.

4. No more munching on snacks at work. I'm going to bring hot tea and have that instead.

Great plan!

When you work out, do you do it on your own, or take any fitness classes? You might want to try a class--I find that a great motivator.

Also, if it fits into your budget, you should splurge on a massage for yourself! It's an awesome way to reward yourself for your hard work and sticking on your plan. It's my new treat--instead of a food reward. Plus, it just makes your body feel so good, and keeps you focused on your goals.

Good luck!

Why can't you go back and get your fill early?Why do you have to wait until March? I started booking my next appt 2 weeks after my fill in case I didn't feel restriction. I just had my 3rd fill, 5.5cc in a 10 cc band and now feel restriction. I will see how it goes and if I am still feeling restriction next week I will cancel my appt and make it for a later date.

My doc says the max you can get fills is every six week, which seems like a lot of docs do...I guess to make sure the fill settles in and you don't get overfilled? Not sure, but it is hard to wait!

Sounds like you have a good plan, just hang in there!
