Kellysue 7 Posted September 10, 2012 Just had my first fill. That was not bad AT ALL. I was scared. I wasn't numbed or anything and it was simple. He put in 2.5 cc and after drinking Water I can feel it, but not bad. He said he would be a little aggressive for the first one, but if in the morning, I am too tight we need to take some out. I have lost 15 pounds since I started by band journey, so I guess I am not a complete failure even though i've eaten like I wanted for about 8 months. 1 NWgirl reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LiveStrong41 51 Posted September 11, 2012 @Kellysue: im confused... why did your first fill happen eight months later. That seems like a very long time! Heck, in that much time ive been known to gain 50 pounds. (Of course, I hope never to do "that" again post op). Still eight months of will power... yikes!

Kellysue 7 Posted September 11, 2012 A lot of it was my schedule and the fill clinic. There is only one place to get it here so I had to go off his schedule and it was just difficult. I wouldn't say I had will power though 1 LiveStrong41 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
