How long until your first fill?

I just found out yesterday that I won't get my first fill until 9 weeks post-op. It was supposed to be two weeks earlier, but my doc is on vacation. :)

So, when did you get your first fill?

Supposed to get a fill at 6 weeks post op but will be going on 2 back to back vacations - I chose to put it off until Aug 9th. I didn't want to deal with any issues while away.

I just had my first fill 10 days ago. I am 14 weeks post-op. It is different for everyone. I chose to wait for my first fill because i wanted to make sure i mastered the food rules such as chewing alot, not drinking with my meals, etc. To me it is not a race with fill date rules and weight loss expectations. It took me 30 years to get this big so i can take my time and make it work for me on my schedule.
