Had my first fill today!

Let me tell you it was awful. My doctor kept having problems finding where the port for my Lap-Band was, so he had to insert it 4 times before he finally got it. We were going to go over to the Hospital and do it under X-ray until he decided to give it one last try. I haven't felt any difference yet because I had to work last night and I do tonight so I haven't eaten anything yet. I was a little disappointed because the scale that I stepped on a work is about 20lbs off, so I guess I am not down as much as a I thought, but everything else is good. Plus I have had some wonderful things happen in my personal life too, so things are looking up.

1. Don't be in too much of a rush.

The weight will come off on its own now, and even in a case like this losing TOO quickly is bad. All-in-all, you sound like you are going to be much happier and healthier soon. I'm very happy for you. :D

2. I'm so glad you're on the mend, and checking in for us to hear about

your progress! That weight WILL come off, even if the darned scale won't measure it!

So glad to hear that your personal life is looking up too! fabulous- :hi:

3. hiya mduffy! good to hear from you again.

The weight will come off, slowly but surely and you'll feel so much better. I hope that insertion procedure wasn't painful. Is that something that has to be done periodically? I confess, I don't know a lot about the lap band at all.
I read your other thread in the lounge. GO for it! Enjoy life to the fullest, you really have nothing to lose (but weight :) )
We all need love and happiness in our lives and I think we all deserve it.
