3rd Fill

[beckermerj 0]

I received my 3rd fill on Tuesday and all I can say is wowsers. I hardly eat and when I do I feel full yippee.. Is this what I have been waiting for? The second day was extremely hard I kept getting stuck. I have to retrain myself again.. :thumbup:

I think you are doing good. There may be some swelling, so you may get a bit looser over the next few days. Are you able to get in enough calories and protien? If you can't, I would give it a few days and then call the doctor if it persists. You don't want to be so tight you can't eat enough.

Yes, I was talking to my mom about that last night I am gonna give it the weekend and go from there :thumbup:

Glad to hear that..that is what I am hoping for on my 3rd fill in a month. I have had 2 so far and do have a little restriction but can still eat 2cups of food before I start feeling full! I am hving a bad week and eating more than I should and food I shouldnt be eating...but Im getting back on track..I am hoping I get that feeling with my 3rd!! Good luck!

Yeah well I have made it through weekend.. things are going better.. I need to chew more because I have been getting stuck.. and somethings I was eating before is out of the question. I think I will see how things go from here

I am 100% right where you are......23 days to my 3rd fill, I am praying I get that restriction everyone talks about that "wowzers" feeling! I can surely eat 2 cups.....and still get hungry 2 hours after eating..food is still on my mind all the time (bummer). But, I am walking and journaling everyday hopefully that will get me through!

Thanks for sharing your fill experiences.... we all seem to be going through a similar experience and trying to reach that place. I've only had one fill of 4cc and feel no restriction. I could also easil consume two cups of food. It's tough!!!! How long do you have to wait between fills?

So far it has been 4 weeks between fills.

I have a 3d fill scheduled for Friday. I have a total of 6 cc right now. The first week after the second fill I had some restriction but it went away. My doctor says at least 3 weeks between fills. I was originally schedule to get the fill on 11/11 but I really would like some restriction. I have stopped loosing and am working out every day. Kind of frustrating because I am weighing my food and counting calories and not getting anywhere.
