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??

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      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.
