green 6 Posted October 17, 2006 Well, I have just returned from having my first fill. I did take one of their Demerol because I am a sissy. This turned out to be a blonde move on my part because I didn't need it, but then I am a blonde! I was given 5cc and told to drink four paper cups of Water from their water cooler. I began to salivate half-way through the first cup. The water felt like it was sitting in my esophagus and it simply wasn't going to move. I wanted to sick it up but couldn't and I wanted to burp. I finally did this and felt much better. After all this personal drama I came out of the washroom and asked that the nice lady remove one cc of the fill. I was able to drink after that. I also discovered that I lost 13 lbs over the past 6 weeks. Yippee!!!!!! Green is very happy about that. I hope that I can keep this up. While I was there I met some nice women and found out that some of them are still tender in their port sites, too. My next fill appointment is on October 31st.

Irishmist 0 Posted October 17, 2006 Way to go Green on your weight loss And you see you are not such a sissy after all, you are braver than you thought you were, :eek: Maria:) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
green 6 Posted October 17, 2006 Thanx for your kind words. That missing 13 lbs sure does feel good! I kinda wish I hadn't got my fill today, though. We have a French guy staying with us and I am gonna be on liquids for the next 24 hours. I don't want to get into explanations for this. He is here for a conference and I am hoping that he won't be home for dinner tonight. Then I will be able to drink my Soup in peace. He is, like all the French people I know, extremely slender and can eat like a wolf. I want one of those metabolisms when I grow up! Oh, well.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Irishmist 0 Posted October 17, 2006 I think it is too late for you and me Green to have fast metabolisms, but then i do not think i ever had one, even when i was younger,maybe a shot with the laser would speed us up, what do you think? LOL Hope you get to enjoy your Soup in peace. Maria:) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How come you are booked for you're nexted fill already? I'm ready to book for sure! Kattiegirl . The TLBC booked three appointments for fills before they sent me home from the hospital after the operation. Each of these appointments is roughly 2-3 weeks apart. The last one is mid-November. The weird thing is that I am starving right now. I have never been this hungry since the operation. I could eat my cat.:paranoid I am smoking far too many cigarettes because I am that hungry! This is really bad!:help: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
