Sorry have not posted in awhile

So I went for my second lap band fill 10/20/2010... The surgeon poked around in there awhile before he found the port and now I am bruised... :(

Anyway.... I am apparently missing 1cc since my last fill. The surgeon said it could be hidden in the curves of the band. During my first fill I had 2 cc and he added 1cc. I did not feel much of a difference with that fill. This time when he aspirated the fluid he only pulled out 2cc....there is suppose to be 3cc...hmmmmmm

So he added 1cc in and only documented 3cc in my chart. I have another fill appt scheduled for 11/15/2010 and we will see if I have "lost" any more cc's. I sure hope not.... *fingers crossed*.

I have not felt a difference since the second addition of fluid to my band. I ate fine after. I am told however it can take up to two weeks to feel any difference from a fill. I hope it kicks in soon.

On another topic I got my weight this morning. I lost 2 pounds!! WOO HOO!!!!
So that is 22 pounds since a week before surgery. I lost 3 pounds between my first fill and the second fill.

I still have a very long way to go... 82 pounds more. I was hoping to be down to atleast 200 by Christmas.... so I guess we will see...
