First Fill Friday

After all the debating and thinking and thanks to all of my band buddies who added their thoughts, I scheduled my first fill and lo and behold, my doctor could do it this Friday - wow! Janet'sjourney made a comment that made so much sense to me. She said that fills are part of the process with the band. Well, yeah, they are. So I'm going to ask for just a small fill. I still don't get "starving" between meals, I'm just stalled and needing a little boost with my weight loss. I still journal my food and my portions are still within range. I'm just not losing . . .I guess that's what fills are for, huh? I am so appreciative of those who have posted the experience of their first fill - I feel prepared and not nervous because I know what to expect, so thanks! And to update on my last post about being under the weather . . I'm pulling out of it . . .rest is the best medicine, I think - still have a cough, but feeling much better overall. And thanks for all the well wishes . . . you're the best!

Yeah, first fill. I am happy for you. I still going thru appointments but thinking positive and one day closer. Friday I have a nuclar stress test where they are going to put blue dye thru me. I am a wee bit nervous over this one but I will be thinking of you getting that first fill and loosing more weight. Been one week since I saw my doctor who told me to loose weight or he won't do the surgery and I am down 10lbs........always the first 10lbs goes easy. I guess he scared the weight off me. So this fill is gonna make you loose 10lbs. Think positive.....

Glad that I could help you make your decision, you will definately feel more restriction after the fill and it is ok! I always lost a couple of lbs the week of the fill.
