First Fill

[TXbandit 4]

Wow, I was scared! Almost as much as before surgery.....but it wasn't bad at all. Just creepy. :huytsao

I had only .4 cc in my band, and she added 2 cc. Then I waited there and drank Water, but it went down really slowly! She said to come back the next day if it was still really tight, but it is better now and I am eating mushies again. It sure made a difference in stopping the foraging for food that I was starting to do! Feels like the first 2 weeks, and that is what my doc said to look for.

I will have my first fill this Friday. This has been life changing already!! I am down 32 pounds in about 6 weeks. I realize I can't keep losing at this same pace forever, but I would love to reach my goal within 1 year!!!! The plateau will come. I lost 70 lbs on Phen-Fen in 3 months. So I look at this as a similar restriction. Then I had to force myself to eat, now I just eat less. I hope everyone else is having similar success. Sorry ladies, I know that we men do lose more quickly. Don't get down! Have a great day!!!!!

my Dr. used this Xray typ machine that allowed him to get straight to the point no pooking here.

Chris,

Hope you get your fill on 17th, already I feel less hungry (thank goodness). Also was told that I'm not actually eating enough so have increased my lunch to 2 cruskits instead of 1.
