1st fill today!

[gailm]

Ad my first fill today and was very easy
I really thought it would be painful but not at all
I've now got 5.5ml in so hopefully I have restriction as last 2 weeks I've eaten like a horse and put 2lbs on (eek not good!)
Got another fill booked for 24th of August
Was told to stay on liquids for 3 days then sloppies but already fed up of Just liquid
Can see sloppys heading my way Before Saturday!
Also was told I can start exercising from next Thursday as it's when I'm 6 week out yippee already got my Zumba and just dance 2

Thats great that you're fill was easy. My first one is booked for 30th August. I've also got Zumba and Just Dance waiting for me! I had a sneaky go at Zumba yesterday but it was too much...I could feel everything pulling around my port wound so I stopped.
I'm at the sloppy stage with the food just now, but I'm still frightened thinking something is going to get stuck. I'm struggling to relax because its all so new.

Hi MrsP
I did exactly the same with Zumba boy did I know I had over done it was in agony!
And I can understand the worry of things getting stuck but after sloppies it was a doddle could eat anything lol
Can feel the fill this morning I've woke up
Feeling full unlike the last 2 weeks of starvation feeling
How many weeks are you out now?

I'm glad your feeling full again. Its horrible feeling hungry isn't it.
I'm just into my 3rd week post-op...early days I guess. Had an oatso simple for brekkie- it was good and ate the lot and feel full which is nice. I'm just in a really negative frame of mind just now...I'll snap out of it as I get more confident about the food choices.

Gail I'm glad it went well, I get my first fil on 15 August, the day we go on holiday & I'm scared! We are only going to my parents' in Mablethorpe so I told them it might be the next day if I feel sicky or anything. Where is your port? Mine is half-way between my belly button & solar plexus (spelling???) How are you doing on slops/liquids?

Congrats Gail on your first fill and it being a good experience.

I hope mine in 14 days will be as good.

Did you know where your port was, before you went for your fill? I am intrigued as to where mine is but am swollen still so dont want to be prodding about my stomach at the moment ...

Well I couldn't believe how hungry I got in 3rd & 4th week it was like I didn't have a band in and ate for England lol
I was upset as I thought what a waste of money but apparently it's normal and once you start getting your fills the restriction kicks in and I must say I've not even thought about food today I've had to force yogurts and soup down
