PattyGirl66 1,243 Posted September 19, 2012 wow 145lbs and with no fill!!! that is awesome! what willpower you must have. I don't have a fill yet I am actually full on what I eat so I am okay for now. I can say this, I had a needle go into my port to remove air that was trapped inside my band after surgery, and like you I was sooo scared. OMG, I had an anxiety attack in the office just thinking about it. Once they put the numbing gel on my belly she found the port in seconds, put the needle in and in a matter of seconds it was over with! I worried for nothing! You are going to be just fine, keep us posted on your first fill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
