Default First Fill Wednesday

I am quite excited I am getting my first fill on Wednesday. I feel that I need it, and can't wait to see how restictive it will be. I am doing well and I am down 43lbs already

Good for you Gina! My fill isn't until the 26th. I guess it just depends on your doc, huh?!

Congrats on the 43 lbs, that is amazing. My problem now is that I can eat regular-sized portions and I'm hungry when I try the 4 oz. I'm losing weight steadily, 20 lbs. so far which isn't bad for 3 wks, I guess, huh? Trying to talk myself into being happy about it. LOL.

Please let us know how your fill goes!

WoW you both are doing well!

I got a little bit of restriction from my first fill, not much but a little. My Dr gave me a fill and I had lost 44 in the 8 weeks, so I am sure you will get a fill too. (Dont be surprised if it takes a good 3-5 fills to get to your "sweet spot".)

I go on Thurs, for my 4th fill. I had really good restiction for the past 5m. but now it is slowly going away, so time for a tweek!!!
