hi i am 7 weeks post op and had my first fill yesterday. The PA said i had to go on a liquid diet for 2 weeks before the doc came in to do the fill. I asked why and he said i might have some swelling due to the fill. Ive read on here that alot of people only do a 1-2 day liquid diet. Would it be bad if I only did a 2 day liquid diet?

it doesnt say... the doc says just use the paper as a guide.

My surgery was on July 31. I was given a paper to go by... The first 2 phases are 2 weeks and just started phase 3 (soft foods) last Fri Aug 14... Whenever i ask my doc he just says what i can tolerate. I am tolerating everything good and am hungry alot. I was hoping moving on to solid foods would satisy me more?

Can i move on to phase 4 solid foods when i have 3 weeks till my first fill?

WOW thanks so much for all the replies! I am feeling better about the whole thing now. I think my issue might be what I am eating. I only eat half cup every 2-3 hours... I am just eating pureed soups, cottage cheese, and yogurt. I guess i am just confused of what I can eat at this point. (3 weeks post op)

Hi, i had my surgery July 31. My doc is going away for 2 weeks and I have to wait till he gets back to get my first fill on Sep. 17! Is this normal? I am so hungry now i am eating like every 2-3 hours i am afraid i am going to gain weight!:biggrin:
