Went for second fill. They were happy with the progress and I am a little. I got on the scale lost about 4 more pounds. I need to update my ticker. Hunger staying away a little longer but I find some says are different than others. Anyone else experience that? One day the hunger stay away longer than someday?

Today is not good! For some reason I was starving this evening ! My hunger is staying away for at least 3 hours but everything is going down! I can't wait for this fill. Think I waited too long to eat. I gotta go work out tonight !

Hey ladies I hope all is well. I'm doing well not much weight loss but I know i'm losing inches especially in stomach (not complaining about that at all) :D . On 7/23 I got a fill(#3) which brought me up to 6.8cc and i'm finally starting to feel the restriction. I've gotten stuck A LOT at-least once a day but that's just a reminder to me to take smaller bites, slow down and chew. I'm going back on the 6th i'm going to ask for .2cc and I think I should be good for a while with that. Workouts have been good 1-2hrs session but I only go on Saturdays and Sundays the workout is murder on my hair. I'm getting braids next week so I don't have an excuse anymore ;). Also after this last fill I noticed that i'm really tight when my cycle starts so going forward I will do liquids and really soft foods during the 1st couple of days. And it looks like i'm tight in the AM also I get hungry around 10-10:30. I'm excited b/c I think I might be departing the band-er hell phase...lol I'm praying that the pounds start falling out. And i'm praying for all of you stay encouraged and focus. ~Cia~

My stuff always go down easy. You ever thought you might just be eating right? I have yet to get stuck and that's what they don't want. Didn't you have a fill last week?

Lol I never been stuck. I told that to the PA she said well your doing things right. I worked out last night and did some upper body workout. My arms were burning. I'm going to move up to 7 days a week. That 30 minutes 5 times a week the PA said was the bare minimum. So I'm going to kick it up she said I would see more weight loss.

I had my surgery on Monday (aug 5). Doing well now. First night I had a case of dry heaves (nothing in the stomach to come up). It scared the crap out of my husband who immediately wanted to call the paramedics. Other than this horrible pain in my shoulder, I feel fine now. Just trying to get the Water in, but I just don't have any desire to eat or drink right now.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
