Six weeks post surgery I am scheduled for my first fill tomorrow. I'm excited, but not sure what to expect after. I have no fill at this time and can eat anything I have tried. Including a Soft Pita, haven't tried bread because I haven't wanted it. I have been losing slowly, about 16 lbs since surgery April 5.

It is tough trying to get in enough Protein eating what I am eating now. I know that I will get 2cc and go back every 2 weeks until I am in the green zone. What I don't know is what to expect. As far as I know I have no restriction right now but I know I am not as hungry as I used to be, that could just be the Water.

How did you feel after your first fill?

Back from my fill appointment. Took about 5 minutes because the Dr had a hard time finding my port. No pain involved though. I was asked if I wanted a topical anesthesia, but I declined. I'm not sure why it would be needed. Dr Bunch was pushing on my stomach and had me change positions, but no discomfort or pain.

He told me I probably wouldn't feel any restriction yet because it is only 2cc. I go back in 2 weeks for another 2cc.

      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.
