I'm on my way to my first fill!!!!!!!!



Recommended Posts

Ok, here it goes!!! I've waited THREE MONTHS - and now I can finally get my first fill!

For Breakfast I had two soft boiled eggs, and just now I had a yogurt. I was only told no solids for 4 hour before the fill. I am SO nervous - but I'm VERY VERY VERY excited to finally be on my way to some restriction. I know I say I have none; but that's not really true - I do have restriction, but very little. I don't know what size band I have, or any of that; but…I'll find all this out at 3:00 today! Whoooooo hooooooooooooo!

AHHHHHHHHHHH - let some more weight loss begin! hehehehe

Sherilynn, congrats on finally getting your first fill. I can't imagine waiting that long. My doctor does the first fill at 6 weeks. Good luck with it. Julie

Hi Vyolet;

Yes, my Doc filled me with 7 cc for my first fill. Are you asking b/c you got the same?

Hey Sherilynn,

No, I got 1cc yesterday for my first fill. I was asking because I did not think that docs fill over 2cc on the first time. Guess I was wrong.

How are you feeling? I know its only been a few days. Congratulations and keep up the great work with your weightloss!!!!

I just had to say I hope it went well for you...and my given name is SHERI LYNNE! I am 56! (It is unusual to see the first name spelled that way...and you are only one letter off my middle name....)....Hopefully all went well!

I had my 1st fill today its been 6 weeks. I was pretty nervous about it but I couldn't even tell when he put the needle in. I'm ready to start to loss some more weight. Could only have liquids today and then tomorrow mush. Kinda nervous about eating normal after that. Never know what to expect huh??

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      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.
