I think I have a 14cc band. If I remember correctly. My first fill was 2cc and this was is 4cc so I now have 6cc in there.She was worried it was too big of a fill and I said "Girl, for $150 I want you to pump it in by the gallon". I could swallow the Water just fine, but I haven't eaten yet....I guess we will see.

Man I am looking at my post and I just love these (...) I need to learn to stop doing it. In my mind it represents thinking, or a pause. I edited to take out two of these (...)

That would be so cool. Hopefully I will follow in your ever thinner footsteps.

I thought I was the only one who did that. I am so bad with it when I'm chatting or messaging. And you're right...it's like a pause. LOL

Give us an update on your restriction progress since you are probably on solids now.

I'm doing good with it. It's not nearly as tight as I thought it would be. I'm eating ALOT less, but solids are going down just fine. I haven't got stuck or anything...but then again I am being really careful. I haven't got on a scale since the fill, but I know I have lost weight. I would say I am pretty happy with it.

Apparently, I need aggressive fills to make a difference. Thanks for asking.

Love em too. To me they are a longer than comma pause. Kinda like joke punchline pause. And I really love em at the end of a partial thought. Can't think of an example now just know it looks like this.

So.......

Anyway.......

      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.
