First fill today - nervous!



Recommended Posts

I have my first fill today and am really nervous. I have lost 40lbs since surgery and am nervous to rock the boat! Should be interesting to see what the doc has to say!

My story is similar and I'm nervous too. But it will all be fine. That's why we went through all this, right? Congrats on your weight loss though. You've done so good! :)

Thanks all - in talking with my surgeon and nutritionist, we opted against the first fill for now. Going back in 3 wks to check in on hunger levels/need for a fill.

Good, now stop worrying, it causes stress which is known to cause eating! LOL

That was me yesterday, but it was okay. It didn't hurt. Although I have been very careful with eating and drinking. We will see if it makes things any better. Will probably take several before I notice it. I hope all goes well next time you see the doc and don't worry. My doc made it very easy and pain free.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
