Long time no write

I've been busy with grad school, finalizing the divorce, getting things ready so that I can move to Houston in June, and work.

I had my 5th fill on Thursday so I am now at 8.75cc and 70 lbs gone since November. I have lost 103 since August.

2 fills done

I've had 2 fills now.

The first fill went smooth with no pain. The second fill...yeah thats a different story! The doctor put the needle in my port but couldn't seem to position it so that it would take the saline solution. At first the doctor thought that the needle bent while trying to position the needle so he took it out. The needle wasn't bent so he reinserted it. He tried finding that perfect position to get the needle so he could put the solution in but it just wasn't working. Finally the planets aligned and the right position was found. I got 2cc of solution and was sent on my way.

I get my next fill on January 27th. I am kind of surprised that I'm not nervous about it after how the 2nd fill went. I guess it all comes down to with a little discomfort for a bit is worth the changes I am making in my lifestyle.
