The 1st fill...

I had my first fill today and man did I get beat up. I have a giant bruise right over my port. He poked and felt and had a hard time finding the port. But, after the 3rd poke of the needle, he finally got it. :cursing:That really hurt.

So, now I'm on liquids, again , for 2 days. By friday I move on to real food. I just hope now I can make it to friday. I am so f-ing hungry, I don't know what to do.

The good news is I am down 22lbs. And wearing very baggie clothes. I can't believe it. I haven't put that much effort into exercising this last month so everything could heal. But, now I have the green light to take some classes at the gym. I have never been sooooo excited to exercise.

I feel like this was the best decision I have ever made for myself. There were a couple of days right after surgey that I questioned what I had done to myself. But, I am starting to feel like this is finally going to work for me and I am excited to see the results.

Good job on the great weight loss! I can't wait to feel the way you do. I am excited, but am still having the thoughts of "what did I do". I have to say if anyone ever says to me I took the easy way out I will slap em! Keep up the good work. Tamara

OH tamihott I am so with you. You have to work just as hard as anyone else with the weight loss. It just gives us a feeling of full for me for the first time in my life. I've never felt that sensation before. It's a wonderful thing.

I'm down 16 pounds since my surgery, and no fill until 10/29.
