First off.....I cheated today. Had my first fill yesterday and the clear liquid crap is killing me. Of course everyone in the office wants to eat Whataburger and root beer floats from Sonic today. Well, my friend got a chicken strip basket from Whataburger, and she knows of my band. She offered me a strip and a few fries...........and I accepted :drool:. I concentrated and chewed because I didn’t know what to expect since I just had a fill yesterday (3cc’s). Yes I cheated but I am glad I did because I was so full after just eating that!!! :biggrin: I have some restriction. Whether or not it is swelling from my fill or not I don’t know, but I love this feeling. It’s not painful but you definitely know that you have had enough. I just need to learn not to drink any fluids for 30-45 minutes after eating. I pray this feeling stays around. I pray it only takes one or two fills to get to my “sweet spot”. Time will tell. :wub:

I just had a fill Monday and I cant believe that you were able to eat fries and chicken I cant get down cream of chicken soup I can bearly get warter down. I love the restriction. I will see how today goes and if I still cant eat then i will go back to the Dr. When I am able to eat fries or to much of any of the bad stuff thats when I run for a fill. Good luck to you. Michelle
