First Fill Special Instrucitons ????

I didn't have to but after the fill I had to do soft foods for 24 hours. Not sure thats any help tho....

Here are some basic guidelines from the lapband.com web site. This site is full of valuable information for new bandsters. In the early months of my journey I lived on this web site and have read pretty much all the articles. I wanted to be as informed as I could be so I could be successful in my journey and work through the frustrations. So far this has worked well for me, I am 19 months post surgery and 103 lbs lost with 17 to go to goal. Good luck to you and I hope this helps.

Thank you for the information, I will look on the web site, and thanks for the information about post fill. I have learned through this process that we have to be pro-active about our health, ask questions, read, and research. Thank you again and I wish you much continued success on your lap band journey -

My doc says not to eat a big lunch before coming in and eat about 3-4 hours before my appt. So far, so good.

I got my appt via email and it said not to eat for 4 hours before the fill and no drinks for an hour before the fill
