YAY! OK, I went in for my post check up (3 weeks ago after 3 weeks of in between time) and stated how hungry I was - behold, the nutritionist said move onto normal foods if you can. That was the first big win I have had in ages. Do date I lost 5.5 kg and I thought that was bad but its actually pretty good apparently. Now they tried to do a fill but no go - too much swelling etc etc
Today I went in for the fill again - and after some prodding poking and a tad bit of pain, the port was deemed to have moved :( My surgeon, mentioning it may have to be surgically moved, gave it another go and YAY! we got it :) My port had systematically moved (I say this because it is my bodies method of dealing with needles :)) to point downwards and now that we know this the next one should be smoother! 3 mls was placed and I feel so happy that I have left prefill limbo behind and should be on my way to losing weight :D happy happy happy! On another note - certain that I gained weight in my prefill full food weeks, I reluctantly stepped onto the scales and was pretty happy to hear I had lost a whole pound :P) I know it doesn't sound like much but I was darn sure I put on so that's a groovy outcome.
I am staying away from the forums for the simple reason that I thought I was doing things wrong and not losing as much as others - I feel much better not having the temptation to compare myself to other people so win win :)
ps. My belly is uber sore - those needles yick :)But I am so happy my surgeon tried again and got it - legend!
