Yesterday was my first fill and it went just fine. Not quite painless, but not a big deal either. My doctor does this with the xray tech. So he initially put some in, checked with the x ray as I swallowed, then removed some. Left me with 2cc. I was on liquids after the fill and then all day today, soft foods tomorrow and back to food on Monday. I am being super careful - small swallows. I don't want any trouble. In fact when I went in, I asked him to be a bit conservative with the fill because I've been doing so well and didn't want to go extreme. I am hoping this will jump start my weight loss again. I know my weight loss is long term, and I'm in it for life BUT we do have a family wedding on the 16th of this month and I have a certain dress in my closet I would like to wear . . .however, I do have a back up dress in case it doesn't fit . . I tried it on last night and my hubby and I were both pretty skeptical . . I'm in it, but I certainly would not wear it anywhere looking like that! Oh well . .little by little and decision by decision . .. we'll get there. And I thank you all again for posting your first fill experiences - I was so at ease because I knew what to expect - piece of cake! Have a great weekend everyone.
