YEAH!!! FINALLY my first fill

[carolann0117 5]

My surgery was on Dec. 27th. I just had my first fill this morning. I've stayed at the same weight for the past 4 weeks..... and SO glad I finally got the fill. I've been nervously looking forward to today for the past 3 weeks. I got 2 1/2 CC's . My dr. has me on Clear Liquids for two weeks. I hope I won't be feeling any hunger.... Being on clear liquids for so long sorta scares me.... If nothing else, it will definitely jump start me into losing again. I was very nervous that it was going to hurt.... I'm soooooooooo glad it didn't!!! Much easier than I expected. Yeah!!! back into losing again!!!! (I was really getting frustrated!)

Yay! Glad to know that you're happy and got your first fill. I was scared that it would hurt too...I don't like needles! Good luck and keep us posted on your weight loss

I dont get the whole two week Clear Liquids unless you have issues eating most doctors only have you on clear liquids for three days at the most. I would double check with him again to make sure he said two weeks of clear liquids or did he mean upgrade over two weeks meaning 3 days of clear liquids, a few days of full liquids, a few days of pureed and then move up to a regular diet. I on the other hand have a very sensitive stomach when getting fills and cannot eat for three weeks or so but that is usually not the case with most.

I also don't understand the clear liquids for 2 weeks. Even pre-op clear liquids was just a week, and when I get a fill it's full liquids for the day only.

But hey, clear liquids will make you lose a ton of weight real fast! Just don't be confused and think the fill had anything to do with it as it will be due to eating nothing but Jello and broth! Good Luck! Not sure I could do the clears for that long !
