Okay, I had my first fill today. I only got 4cc’s and I had not lost any weight in the last two weeks. The nurse, who is a banded patient herself, told me not to get discouraged. This happens to a lot of people, it’s only the fill. Though it made me feel a bit better, I’m still a little worried. I should have lost more.
Then there are those close friends and family members who always ask, “How much have you lost already?” OMG, this has become the most hated question in the past three weeks. Dang, this should be a joyous time, but it makes me feel bad because I have not lost much. It makes me want to just lie and tell them that I’ve lost 15 or 20 pounds. :wink:
Now since I’ve gotten the fill and 4cc’s is not enough to really provide much restriction, I’m a little on edge because I’m thinking that I’m going to have pay close attention to how much I eat. I can’t wait until September when I get my next fill.
