I Finally Have Restriction.



Recommended Posts

I had my second fill the other day and I finally know what restriction feels like. I love it!!! I am now at 4.5 cc's. The first fill was 3 cc's that took the edge off, but after a month I was white knuckling through the day with hunger. I have been using A LOT of self restraint for the past 3 months and I have been able to lose 36#'s in the process. Without this last fill, I am sure that I would have started gaining quickly. My meals were getting larger and I was losing self control. When I told my doctor I was able to eat 2 pieces of pizza no problem, she said I needed a fill. So 1.5 cc's later, I am eating like I did 3 weeks after surgery. I was able to only eat 1 oz of rotisserie chicken and 2 broccoli florets for dinner the other night and I was stuffed. I love it! (Yes, I love my band)! I'm looking forward to ramping up my weight loss this month as my 20 year high school reunion is at the end of this month. Wish me luck on that!

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
