Fill 'er Up!



Recommended Posts

Well I go for my first fill in a couple hours. :clap2:

Can't wait to get it done so I can find out what it is like and to see if there is any difference but I also just can't wait to really begin the process of loosing more weight. I have stayed the same the past couple weeks and I need a push.

Lucky you. I am hardly containing myself for my first fill. April 24th is much too long. Wish I had the money to go earlier. Let us know how much they give you and how you made out sipping your Water slowly. Doddie

Well I got my fill yesterday. As I thought finding the port was difficult. I had to push up the muscles in my stomach (who knew I had those) and take in deep breaths for the nurse to get it but hey at least I know how to find it now. Anyway it wasn't as bad a I thought but I didn't really feel anything because I think I was concentrating so hard on that crazy big needle. Anyway it went well and 5 min later I was up and out of the office. No biggie.

I can feel a difference though. I just had.4 (I think) put in but last night with dinner I was full quicker and I just felt tighter digesting the food. Hopefully I will see some changes on the scale from this but I know that it can take a few fills so I am not going to go crazy expecting big results just yet. I would like my ticker to move though so cross your fingers. :P

Well I am going to wait this fill out but I have the feeling that I will be going back soon enough for another. Feeling back to how I was before the fill. Not pushing things though cause I do not want to have another bad sticky episode like a couple weeks ago.

I know what you mean. I feel a bit of restriction, but I can still eat more than I should, and I have been feeling hungry again. I already have a fill booked for April 13th so hopefully that will dial me in a little.

I would like to make another appointment but I feel like I should wait. Well I think I will give it till next wed because then it will be a week and if nothing still by then I will go back and see about another fill.

I want to hear about this "restriction" that everyone keeps talking about. :)

      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.
