I went to the docs on Tuesday. Lets rewind at my 1 week post op visit they told me at my 4 week post op visit I would be getting my 1st adjustment. So Tuesday the doctor took a whole 3 minutes to ask me how I was and then said "so at your next appt you'll get your 1st adjustment" and I was like "WHAT!" Long story short he went and chit chatted with the Nuse Practitioner and then she came in and gave me my fill! Thank goodness bc I totally didn't drive 40 minutes to tell my doctor in 3 minutse that I was feeling good!
Anyway for anyone concerned it was SOOO MUCH EASIER THAN GETTING YOUR BLOOD DRAWN! It was so painless. It took a total of maybe 30 seconds for it to go in and out. I was waiting for the pain and literally there was none and I had no numbing cream!
They put 2 1/2cc's in my 10cc band, I can't say I feel differently. I guess it can take up to 2 weeks to feel restriction, can someone explain that one to me? Anyway I think I feel less hungry though. And I lost almost 3lbs in 2 days I went from 239.7 to 237.2. I get my 2nd fill on Aug 14th!!!
