    First fill next week

    My port felt higher than my incision after losing weight to. I am about 7 weeks post op and have had 2 fills. It seems higher when I stand up and lower when I lay down (weird I know). When the doctor did my fills he goes below my scar so I assume everything is just fine. Good luck to you! :-)

    Amazed!!!

    Congratulations!! I love hearing good news about the band! It is very inspirational.
  5. I panicked before surgery too. Everything will fall into place. I too LOVE food and now I just enjoy it in smaller portions. I also co sleep with a very active 4 year old and never had an issue. Like everyone said....breathe!! You will do fine! :-)

    Feeling your port

    My doctor told me to feel it when I went in for my first post op visit. Until then I hadn't really tried because I am a big baby and was afraid. I could feel it right away without pushing down. Of course I got woozy the first time and it took me a bit before I felt it again but now I find myself feeling it a lot. Tried to get kids and parents to feel it but no takers.....lol.

    PROTEIN SHAKE RECIPES (A Must See)

    Thank you sooooo much. My husband bought me the nutribullet for Christmas in preparation for my surgery (January 30). I have yet to use it for protein shakes. These look delicious!! I am printing it out too!! :-)
  10. Great job with your success so far. I just had my first fill of 3.5cc and I am starving ( I am still on liquids though). I am hoping when I go to mushies the hunger will subside. Good luck to you. :-)

    First Fill.....

    Thanks. I had 3.5cc put in my 10cc band. Not using flour.
  13. I had my first fill today and almost passed out. It didn't hurt or anything but I got myself all worked up and scared. I felt so silly after laying down with a cold compress.....I am such a baby. Anyway, my question is......I am starving....is that normal? I am on clear fluids for two days then full fluids for two and so on. Am I going to feel hungry the whole time? I thought I would feel full easy like after surgery. Thoughts??
