Had My First Fill Today



Recommended Posts

I had 2 cc put in...is it bizzare that I enjoyed the experience? Just the whole notion of having the ability to add/ take Fluid out is so fascinating to me. I always had so much anxiety when I thought of getting a fill, but I already want another one...oh yeah, and I've lost 34lbs since my surgery 12/17/12..57 lbs total from pre-op diet ..also an awesome feeling...:)

Congrats! I've been wondering what does a fill actually feel like? When they put Fluid in do u feel the band become tighter? I haven't even felt something around my tummy my only pain has been soreness at incision sites

I generally feel nothing but the initial needle stick with fills. Some people may be sensitive enough to feel the band tighten, but I am not one of them. Peaceful1, so happy you had a good experience. It is fascinating to me too.

I literally felt NOTHING..the only thing I felt was a slight snugness around the band. I definitely feel a little tighter, but it doesn't bother me...phew! So relived! Good luck to you!

      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.
