First Fill Today, But I Have A Question!

[KassieRose 60]

I had my first fill today (had myself soooo psyched out but it went great!) and the doctor said to back off for the next 24 to 48 hours. But I am craving something... goldfish. I used to eat them all the time before my surgery but haven't had them since. I always chew them to a sort of baby food consistency when I eat them, so do you think having a few of them would be okay?

I would finish out the day on just liquids. Slowly introduce solids and see how it goes. But I wouldn't push it today just to be on the safe side!

You should stay on liquids for 24 hours. Seriously. The fill can make your stomach swell. It's only 24 hours and you'll be back to normal...

He didnt tell me to do just liquids.

No I don't think crackers are a good idea. Most doctors call for full liquids 24 hours after a fill and mushies the next 24.

[ducker2010 17]

I have yet to hear of a doctor who doesn't say to be on liquids for 24 after a fill.

I agree too 1 day of liquids 1 day of mushies then try solids

That's what my doctor says.

My doc gives me a handout with instructions, labwork needed (if any), how much I have lost or gained, and what they put in or removed. It always says liquids for 24-48 hours after a fill. I like this sheet. You should ask for one at each appt!

I've heard 2 days liquids, then mushy until comfortable with regular food again. I'm currently on day 2 and haven't even been able to handle the liquids.

You are too tight if it goes on for much longer... May need to get just a little bit out.
