1st fill cancelled because of snow storm, bummed

[fhce13 0]

This is my first time writting although I have been reading your questions and responses for awhile. I was banded 12-21-09. Lost 28 lbs the first 5 weeks. Have stayed the same the last 3. I was to have my first fill today and it was postponed due to the weather. I am totally bummed and just want to eat a huge peice of chocolate cake. I also have noticed that at 8 weeks alot of you are on your 2nd fill. I know everyone is different but like everyone else I have gone through this whole experience to lose weight, not stay the same. Sorry, I'm just having a "poor me" day. I have learned alot, Thanks, Leslie:mad:

Leslie, I am sorry for your disappointment. I hope they can get you in soon and that you get to restriction quickly.

Sorry to hear your first fill was canceled. Take heart, I am almost 4 months post op and only getting my second fill at the end of this month :-(

Hang in there. I know how tough it is waiting to get the help you need for your tool to work.

Leslie where are you ??? I tried calling my office today because i had a question but they were closed as well for weather

I would be CRAZY with frustration if that happened to me! Please skip the huge piece of chocolate cake cuz it will only further frustrate you after you have eaten it.

I know it is no consolation but, rarely do you get restriction on your first fill so ... getting your fill tomorrow won't make that big of a difference.

Hang in there, visit this forum a lot ... people here are WONDERFUL!!

Ahhh I was so scared last year that my surgery was going to be cancelled because of a snow storm. I told everyone if I had to drive a snowmobile I was going nto get there! Dang ND weather!

My appointment last Friday was postponed...and I'm sure will be cancelled again (this Friday). Only...I need an unfill of a small amount. Can't eat much of anything and having reflux at night!

I'm here in Maryland and we are having one heck of a winter storm/blizzard...even pulled the plows off the roads earlier today.

That said--my dr. made me wait more than 6 weeks to heal and then only did once a month after that. It'll take time, but you'll get there. Good luck!

You are so allowed a poor me day for that!!!! I hope they get you in soon and you're that lucky one that gets great restriction on the first fill. You are doing great by the way, even without a fill.
