My First Fill
Aug 24, 2010
Two months and 14 days have passed since my surgery and today I finally received my first fill.They gave me 4cc's which is quite a bit, but given my circumstances, she really wanted to give me a "boost".
For those of you who are wondering what it feels like, it's really nothing more than a little pin prick. Really! I am petrified of needles so I kept my eyes shut and she walked me through it. She told me everything she was doing (which helped). I felt a tiny bit of pressure, but really, it felt like nothing was done.
She explained to me that you will not feel any different until you actually eat something. She told me to go on a 2 day liquid diet...I will start tomorrow. This will really jump start my new restriction.
I'm excited, and feel like I've been given another shot at losing a large amount in a short amount of time.
I am going to start exercising...2 miles leisurely walking (consistant walk) each day. Then I will add my kettleball exercise.
My surgery was on June 10th, 2010...today is August 24th and I have lost 20lbs. Not as much as I wanted nor what they expected. I am not giving up. I will not let this deter me from getting to my goal weight.
So, don't worry about the fills...it's a breeze...trust me!
