Will this hurt? what happens afterwards? Will I be able to eat food? how will I know when I get that full sensation? Kinda scared!! Wonder how much will they put in there?

I just had my second fill last week. For both of my fills, no pain. I was offered a numbing anesthetic and took it. I was told 48 hours of full liquids after the fills. My first fill did not really give me much of a full sensation once I went back on solid food, but my second one did. My advice is to eat very slowly as you try to feel the satiety signals. Eating too fast causes me to chow down right past "enough" into "too much".

Good luck! And don't worry if you don't notice much difference the first time. Most people need several adjustments to get to their green zone.

I had my first fill last Thursday. 3cc. No numbing stuff. Felt nothing. They gave me a glass of Water and I let out a big burp. Oops. But nurse, who had band ten years ago, laughed and said that's common.

liquid for two days then back to food. Can't say I feel too much different. Next appointment in a month.

They are pros.... No need to fret. Took two minutes

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
