Band fill tomorrow first one and Nervous!!!

I have an appointment tomorrow for my first fill in my band. I have lost a total of 20 lbs and I need this restriction. I can eat way too much and I haven't had any trouble at all what so ever. I am nervous that It will be painfull and I am nervous that I won't be able to even sip water. Anyone want to share their first fill expierence??? I went back to kick boxing this morning whats one more day before my check up ya know? Nothing hurt and I even got in most of the 250 crunches. I am a little sore and I think I will sit in the hot tub this evening. Let me know your first fill expierence and ease my worried mind! Thanks Jackie

Good Luck tomorrow Jackie!!! I don't get fills so I can't help you there, but I hope all goes well for you. Shawn M.

Thank you Shawn! You are so sweet and upbeat and such a good support system for everyone. I read your posts all the time and I watch your page and read your updates. I went back to kick boxing class and I am trying to stay on my game but sometimes I am so exhausted. I was so tired yesterday I drank two cups of regular coffee. I get to see my Dr Schram (he is so cute) tonight and he is going to stick that needle in my abdomen while I am awake!!! OM goodness I hate the thought. I hope it all goes well, I am just over obsessing about it. Happy Holidays if I don't chat with you before then........Love Jackie

For me the fill experience was a cinch. I only got .5 cc's though because I was only 4weeks post-op. Good luck and relax!

Thank you I am trying to relax! I went to bed early last night so I will be well rested. Think of me at 4:30 today! Jackie

Good luck to you and let me know how it goes. I get my first fill on Thursday and I am both excited and nervous as well. Did they tell you any special instructions about eating before your appointment? I didn't get any but others have.

It was a breeze really and I was worried for nothing. He injected me once and then came back to inject me again. Evidentially, I have a larger band than normal because my stomach was large.......no wonder I could eat so much!!! I do feel restriction if I drink to fast or eat too fast. I ate roast beef and 2 tbls of mashed potatoes for dinner. I then took a water with me to the mall. I had a decaf sugar free carmel latte on the skinny ( skim milk) and that went down fine. I burp alot. I am now having a Naked' protein drink for evening snack. All is well and I have to get up at 5 am to kick box tomorrow am. Have a great evening and don't stress it didn't hurt a bit. Jackie No eating instructions at all I ate breakfast and lunch today.
