2nd Fill

gypj · June 10, 2005

Well...went to visit Dory in Soho for fill number 2...I definitely feel a whisper of something, but not a really tight restriction.

Last time I got my fill (it was my first) I ate first and had no restriction afterwards...this time I had no food before the fill and while I feel something (i'm at 1.6) I can't wait until I can get it just right.

I'll just keep the faith and try to be patient. I noticed now that i'm running my appetite is growing more frequent...that's my big fear. Keep sending the positive vibes please.

Hi!

I am on my second fill also! Although I am filled to 2.5ccs. My fill definetely took a few weeks to kick in. Now I feel like I'm in a really good spot as long as I keep my mind on track!! Hopefully you will be the same and notice restriction becomes greater as time passes!! I also have the same situation with excercize. I had been working out with a trainer and a friend 4 days a week for an hour, pretty intensely (running and cardio drills and light weight lifting with lots of reps) and my appetite was huge!! I also was dealing with a few week long plateau. Last week I was so busy I had to miss all of my workouts and my appetite was much more in check.......I also lost 3 pounds......I guess like everything you have to find that happy medium of getting in exercize but not so much that your ravenous all the time.....

Anyway, good luck with your fill and I hope you find that sweet spot soon!
