Fill Was OK

I had my first fill two days ago! My band was empty and my doc put in 4 cc's...it was too much so she back it down to 3.8 and I seem to be doing okay.

 

I don't feel hungry really...I have some head hunger but not too much real hunger. Today I will try to eat some real food so we will see how that goes.

 

As far as pain goes there was almost none. My doc does not numb you up first like some others so...which is okay with me. I'd rather get stuck just once. It was a teeny tiny pinch and she got it the first time. I have watched a lot of fills on youtube and it looked like the docs "dug" around quite a bit searching for the port. That was not my experience at all.

 

:thumbup:It was smooth, fast and very easy...and I was a nervous wreck not knowing what to expect. I felt silly being so worried when it was all said and done.

 

I hope I am on my way to some good weight loss now, not that I am complaining I think I have done pretty well so far. I just have this little voice in the back of my head telling me I am going to eventually gain it all back and the band won't work for me. :smile2:
