First checkup after surgery--NO FILL!

I went for my first checkup today and didn't get a fill. I've been eating about every 4 hours and not getting hungry in between so I didn't get a fill! She told me that sometimes people just don't need a fill. There's a guy that had his surgery the same place I did that hadn't had a fill at all for 3 months. Then he finally needed one. I think that's cool and of course I read about it on this site! :thumbup:

We also set my goal weight today to 180 instead of 145. Interesting. I feel great today! :wub:

That's awesome. Feeling great is a good thing! I'm like you...I don't really get hungry. YET, when I went in for my fill appointment, they still wanted to give it to me, even though I"ve been steadily losing weight and not starving. So they shoved in 4cc's. And honestly, not feeling much different. So I'm chugging right along! Good luck. And keep going!!!

I was like that as well. Good call on the goal, you may find that it is a reasonable one. My wife was close to your starting numbers and your goal number. It has worked out well for her.

Great job on your weight loss. This is very encouraging to me. I'm getting banded on september 30th. I wondered if this ever happened. It didn't seem like it, but I'm really hoping it does to me. Why did you change your goal weight? I'm just curious.

I had surgery in March and I have not had a fill, I lost 30 on pre op and 64 since.

As long as I stay away from silider foods I have great restriction and won't get a fill until I stop losing.

had surgery on 6/9, had my first fill on 7/27 they put in 4.25cc and I am waiting for my 2nd fill to be scheduled. I feel hungry alot, and can eat. Today I had 3 meals 1 cup each and a protein shake, as well as my snack. No sliders. It is time for a fill.
