I Made It Through My First Fill - Barely

[HotLikeMe 0]

Hey - I'm not as big a weenie as I thought. I got my first fill today. It was 1.8cc in the Inamed medium band (I don't remember what the cc capacity is in that one). I started having a little bit of a panic attack and once thought I was gona pass out - but I didn't. WEIRD feeling though -drinking Water and actually feeling it go down. Jen (Hotlikeher) came with me to hold my hand and ended up holding my feet - they won't stop shaking when I'm really nervous. YEAH for ME!!! Now maybe I'll actually start the scale moving downward again.

Yippeee!!! Let us know in a few days how your restriction is. I'm thinking the "medium" band is the 10cm/4cc band? If so, that sounds about right to have 1.8cc for your first fill. Good for you!!!

Cheryl,

I too went for my first fill. I only had 1cc. put in and so far I really can't tell a difference. If I don't get some restriction after this weekend I will call and get another little tweak in it. I was scared of the fill also.

Hi, I had my first fill yesterday...they put in .5cc. After reading other posts, I know it could take a few weeks for it to kick in. I just ate some mushy food today, and I have noticed that I am feeling fuller longer than I was without the fill, and that's great for me! Cindy

I'm able to eat mushies now. I had to wait 48 hours after the fill to eat. It was a little scary at first - since I could still feel liquids going down, but I did fine - works great - eat about 1/2 as much as I could before the fill. As soon as the scale and NSV's stop - I'll go back for another. Still a big sissy - but at least I know what I'm in for.
