Xann77 0 Posted March 17, 2006 Hi All! Well after much fear and worry, I had my first fill of 1.3cc's with no problem at all. Dory Ferraro (the fill NP in NYC) was GREAT. She found it on the very first try which was awesome. It literally took about 1 minute to do and wasn't painful at all-- she didn't even use local and I'm a HUGE BABY when it comes to pain. Unfortunately, when I weighed in I was up 5 pounds from a few weeks ago so I'll have to update my signature. I'm so happy to finally be on the road to weight loss -- have an unfilled band is so incredibly frustrating! Plus it doesn't help that my evil mother says to me today, "oh good, I'm glad you finally got the adjustment because I was so depressed when I saw you last weekend and you hadn't lost anything." :angry She knocked the wind right out of me with that one but I'm not going to let her bring me down if it kills me!!! Anyway, thanks to everyone for answering all my questions and please send good vibes my way. Thanks!!! suzanne Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Akbar 0 Posted March 17, 2006 Slow and steady loss is probably much healthier, anyway - you're still well on your way. Dr. Fox mentioned at my first fill (and I had already found this out) ".. as far as alcohol, you ALWAYS have an empty stomach now". His nutritionist also mentioned that I would now be cheap date. How true. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
