Had My First Fill

[hopeo71 22]

Well,had my first fill since my surgery on May 2. Happy to say I'm down 18 pounds. The past 10 days I noticed that I was feeling more hungry and able to eat more, so I'm happy that I didn't have a weight gain. As for the fill, it wasn't as bad as I thought. The PA found my port quickly and before I knew it the needle was in. What I was more worried about was standing up, with the needle in, so I could drink some Water. I wasn't too sure what I would feel at first, but then it felt like a lump at the back of my throat. I told her when that feeling went away(which was fast) and she added more saline. We did it again, but it was too tight so she took some out. I have 5.4 cc's in a 10 cc band. Now just have to do the full liquids for 24hours then,mushies for 24 hours, then back to regular food. Next fill, July 26!

I go for my first fill on 6/19. I'm a little nervous. As soon as I changed to soft foods I have been feeling so hungry. I'm scared I'm going to gain weight.
