First Fill


I had my first fill two hours ago. It took the doc 4 tries with the needle to find the port but it didn’t hurt. The most pain came from him poking around trying to find the port with his fingers. There were already 3 cc in it from surgery and he added another cc so I hope it will give me some help to lose a few pounds in the next couple of weeks. I drank some water, burped and off I went.

An hour ago I drank a cup of tomato soup with no problem. I just finished eating some small crackers with a bit of chicken salad. I’m also listening to everyone to chew, chew, chew and have patience and take my time. So far so good but I can feel a bit of pressure already. Happy to be moving forward.

I just had to add this link. A glass of wine may keep women from gaining weight, study says . I knew it! I am so happy and may pop open a bottle!

Fantastic - you just had your first fill. You're a patient woman though.. four times? Ouch lol. And yeah.. go for that glass of wine. We all know just how great it is for us. Hope you get some lovely restriction!!

You're lucky you had some restriction from the get-go. This adjustment should go a long way.

Yes, I was blonde my whole life...naturally until adulthood. As a new couple trying to save for a house and stuff, it was just too expensive to keep up.




Ok, ok, you want the dirty truth? As I gained weight, I didn't want the attention being blonde brings me. I just don't feel like the extroverted flirty blonde I've always been. When I post a new pic of me with a short blonde sassy cut, you'll know I'm happy with my outer self again. It's coming, I feel it. =)

My doc gave me 4cc during surgery and it's strange because I do have restriction because I very rarely get hungry and when I do eat I get full pretty quickly but it doesn't last long. My body wants food every few hours. So I don't know if they will give me a fill or not next month. I hope it doesn't take 4 TRIES!!! Do you have a knot under your port incision? I do but I don't know if that's the port or not. It's rather large! Well anyways...congrats on your first fill!
