I got my first fill yesterday!
And now, I have my first restriction. It feels great! I feel full, and I had to stop eating. This is what I wanted!!!! I am feeling confident in my band now.
Hopefully my weight loss can pick back up. I am excited now, again, to be here on this journey.
I met a woman yesterday who was getting a fill at the same time as me, and she had been banded for four years. She was diagnosed with a brain tumor not long after she got her band, so she has had a tough go of it, but she is still there, four years later, getting a fill! :clap2: to her!
