Day 64 Post Op - 67.2 Pounds - 1 Fill

When is it time to get a fill?

My surgeon told me something like when you are able to eat without any problem, stop losing weight, and feel hungry a lot, then schedule another fill.

Did I hear that right?

How about two out of three? I am blessed so far: no puking! I mean I must be part goat because I can eat most anything: bread, eggs, fruit with skin, spicy food . . .:cursing: Stuff I know has caused grief for others. And I am still losing weight -- although not like the pre-op and initial post-op when I was on the POW diet (protein shakes, broth, and Jell-o X 3 meals). I am still losing about 3 to 4 pounds a week.

BTW: I hope I am not pissing you off. I know or have heard plenty of horror stories about upchucking, blowing chow, hurling, driving the porcelain princess after sucking down something you thought you could eat only to review the evidence as you spew!

I am the exception. The poster old fart. And it isn't because I am chewing every bite fifty times before swallowing. Hell, I would have even fewer teeth than now if that were the case. (Last count I think I have about eight of my own with another 16 or so in various bridges, crowns, etc.)

Seriously. When do you know it is time to call for another fill?
