First fill a breeze
Hello all ~
I am so glad that I have been watching what you all have posted as far as how the fills go because I wasn't nervous at all and I got 4cc in my 10 band today and feel just fine.
The best news is that I have lost 27 LBS since my surgery on the 19th of July but overall since last year when I started all the meetings 43 LBS. I am so excited and have received alot of nice comments. I hope that my success continues so I can finally feel & look thin.
I am heading up to Maine for a long weekend so hopefully with the weather being beautiful I can walk the beach. I just love it!!!!!!
Talk to you all soon
By the way, I am so proud of all of you on your success with the band. I just love coming on this site for some inspiration.
I keep telling myself I can do this too!!!!

Thank you so much Tom
I am back from the long weekend that I had at the beach in Maine and now back to reality.
I walked so much at the beach that I actually had leg cramps during the night, 1 night.
I really felt so good though doing it and if we got hot we just went in the ocean for a dip.
Thank you for all your support.

Thanks so much Steph ~
I am back from the long weekend I had at the beach with so much tempting food. It was so hard to control myself but I DID IT!!!!! However I didn't track a thing since being gone so I need to get back to it. I have noticed that your weight is really going down. Keep up the great work!!!!!

Thanks Pam, I am losing slowly but surely...it feels great! My pants are falling off...I have a pair that fit, but since my fill it hurts to wear them. They are Levi's 550s and a little snug around the waist. I plan to wait a couple of weeks and try again. My highest weight was 290 in 2008 so I am down 50lb from that...

Way to go ~ It does feel great to have the clothes getting looser for sure!!!!!I am debating whether or not to go get all new uniforms for work, or wait a little longer....myself
I guess once I start walking ot tripping on my pants it will be time LOL!!!!!! I am just about there.
You will be in those pants shortly, keep on truckin
Take care

AWESOME! Way to go! Congrats on the weight loss. Glad to hear that you had no issues with the fill. I am going to be having my first fill very soon. I've been lucky and haven't needed one so far, but I feel like I need one now. Thanks for the encouraging words. That's what we're all here for, to help each other out.
Have a great vacation!

Thank you Heather~
You certainly are an inspiration to many of us.
When I went for my first fill I didn't think I needed one either but the PA was all set to do one and he had asked me how I was doing with my diet because the weight loss was so good and he was impressed, so he just said do you think you are ready for a fill and I said sure and we did it but I think if he really did leave it up to me to have one or not I am not sure if I would have said yes. I just thought I should go along with him where he knows best. I never felt any restriction at all but I never pushed more than the 3 oz I am suppose to have for my meals or the snacks , and I still don't even with the 4 cc he put in and he told me that some never do feel it. I could honestly say that I could feel the band tighten when he did the injection but absolutely NO pain.
Good luck with yours
Keep up the great work.......
