I had a really hard time on liquids after my first fill too! My doctor says 24 hours on liquids, then proceed with normal foods with caution.

I had to do liquids after my fill too, two days and it was so much harder than pre/post op. They wanted me to stay on mushies too for 2 days, then ground/chopped for 2 days. I got up to one and a half days of mushies and went to regular fiod

I didn't have a liquid restriction after my first fill. I was told I might need liquids or mushies, but could eat whenever I could.

It's so weird seeing what different doctors tell people to do. I've had 8 fills and 2 un fills.. so i guess This ismy 6th fill and I'm just not doing well tonight I really want a peice of cheese.. just one.. it's ridiculous. I haven't snacked today but I find it VERY hard not to snack at work because everyone around me dose... that's why I joined this site.. I need help staying on track...

Best of luck..

I got my first fill about 30 hours ago. I did fine until right now. Now I want FOOD!! That's why I logged on... to see if anyone else was able to eat food at this point after the fill. It makes sense to me to eat as my body is telling me... so long as I don't overdo it, and actually listen to my body. So now that I know other people can eat soft food this soon after a fill, I'm going to, too! (Yes, cheating is bad, but so is hunger!)

I have been filled about 5 times and some removed 3 times. I'm either in the yellow or red. Never green. Yesterday they did my 5th fill & believe that they got my sweet spot but I don't know yet. I'm sensitive to fills so doc told me 48 hours liquids. Usually Its only 24 hours and 24 hours mushies. I had some very watered down cream of Tomato Soup for Vitamins & TASTE. I'm hungry but with this Soup it helps greatly.

I just pray that I don't have to go back for another "unfill"

Usually I can eat a lot or nothing. So we Shall see

Good luck :)

I had my second fill on Tuesday and my surgeon follows a strick eating schedule after a fill.

3 days of Clear Liquids

4 days of full liquids

7 days of soft food

So you do not resume a regular diet for two weeks after your fill. This is so the pouch and stomach has a chance for the inflammation to go down and to now be grinding away digesting food.< /strong>

Hope this helps some!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
