My first fill

So tomorrow I go in for my first fill for my band.  For those who don't know the band has a balloon on the inside of it and as the restriction goes down the doctor fills the balloon with a little saline to increase the restriction which in turn decreases the amount of food it takes to feel full and it makes you feel fuller longer.  Since this is my first fill I am a little nervous, I have been trying to slow down when I eat to prepare for this but I haven't been very consistent with this so hopefully I won't make myself sick by eating to fast.  But I am excited about getting this thing going.  I guess sometimes it can take a couple of fills before you start to feel the restriction. I hope this doesn't happen and make me discouraged...I try to write another blog tomorrow or thursday to give you an update on the fill!
