I've had no loss since my last update. If you remember I had hit bandster hell and hit hard. After the weeks of the liquid diets and softs slowly passed, the scales actually creeped up about 4 lbs. Thanks to those who got me through this ruff time...it meant so much.
Today was my first fill. The worst part was the numbing shot. It was a little worse than a bee sting but reminder: I am a big baby! I'm sure it's common but my fill was via fluoroscope. I have a Realize Band, 11cc and was totally empty. I received 6cc. I was so nervous because I had ran into a lady at the gym several weeks back who had the band and saw my doctor and said he only did 1cc at a time. I was actually in panic stage; I would never loose. But I am very happy with my first fill and can't wait for the scales to start dropping! My next fill is scheduled for December 8.
The race has started; and she's off!

Yay for the first fill! I am finishing up my post op liquids/mushies, and can definitely feel a difference. Whether that stays with me or not, who knows...
ReplyDeleteThanks girl :) So glad your fill went well. Can't wait to see our dropping numbers! :)
ReplyDeleteYAY! Looking forward to seeing how the fill helps ya!
ReplyDeleteWow that's a big fill!! Mine was just a needle injection, took literally five seconds. I got 1.5 cc for a total of 4 cc. I only have today on liquids & tomorrow on pureeds foods, but I can already feel a difference!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely a really good fill. Hope it works for you.
ReplyDeleteWOO HOO on your fill!! Will be thinking about you - and hoping it does the job!
ReplyDeleteYay for your first fill! I had mine this week too. Its been four days and I am still struggling with liquids. Strange but at least I know the scales will show good numbers next weigh in. Sorry I haven't checked in for a while. I love the new look of your page! I especially like your banner. V.
