Is it bad to eat right after a fill? I had my fill 5 hours ago, AND I AM HUNGRY!!!!! OK not hungry but starving, !!! What happens if you eat? has anyone had something to eat right after a fill?

I always eat right after a fill. My dr says usually fills don't effect u for a day or more do why be miserable in the interim? That's just me tho. I don't know what ur drs take is on it

My doctor is fine with eating after a fill, he says just be careful, they always make u eat a yoghurt after a fill before u leave the hospital to make sure u can get it down but i usually eat normally after a fill just not heavy duty food is all

My dr orders liquids for 24hrsthe after a fill. Ut in the last 2 1/2 yrs, I've followed his orders once. My last fill (I think it was the 6thlast fill).

In fact, after my 3rd fill, I finally got restriction. I ate about 3the bites of chicken, 2 bites of baked potatoe, and a coupla bites of salad and I was totally full. It was like magic. The last fill I got in Jan was. 5 cc's and maxed my band out at my current weight. I still need to lose about 10 lbs so to hear I was maxed out was a bummer.

I would advise tho to follow ur drs orders. If s/he tells u to only do liquids for a certain amt of time, do it. I guess im not a very good patient as I rarely follow drs orders.

Good luck

It all depends what your surgeon's recommendation are. Mine says clear liquids 48 hr, full liquids 48 hours, then go back to regular meals. I, after 2 years, sometimes, will cheat by day 3. Best of luck, I would say just don't overdo. Karen

I would do liquids till the night then eat something soft after that for a day.

Worked for me untill this last fill, Now Im so restricted that I cant eat much of anything like Marfar7 I really fill it if I try to overeat.

Do what you and your dr decide, but the tigher you get the less you will want to do that.

i have always been able to eat after my fills..... dr. just says to don't push it.

Full liquids 24 hrs then mushies 24 hrs.

Why so many fills? Unless you aren't losing weight, why are people getting so many fills?

When you go in for a fill you only get a little bit at a time. I just had my 3rd fill on Monday and I am now at 7.8cc with a 14cc band. I asked for more but they will only give a little at a time.

Depending on the doctor, they will only fill so much at once. Different people need different levels of fills. Some only need to go a couple of times, others need to go often. Mine advise that day to drink liquids, mushies the second day, then solids. I usually go a bit faster than that, though. I would stick to softer foods, at least fill day.

there comes a time when you can just eat more and the weight loss decreases or stalls. Anyway this is why you got the band to be able to adjust it.

I never went in for an "unfill". My dr. always put in the right amount after about 4 fills. I also have the 14cc band. I have 5cc in it now and i'm going next week for 5 more. I had all my fill removed 11 weeks ago for my Tummy tuck. So now i have to start over... but at least he is filling like i want him too.

I had my first fill today and my doctor didn't have a problem with me eating. She gave me 3cc, and I feel a little difference but I'll see in a few days if I'll have to go back for another one in a few weeks

My surgeon tells me full liquids for three days while stomach us adjusting to the fill.

My dr orders liquid diet after fills for the rest of the day. If I eat solids after a full my belly gets really irritated and I'm susceptible to gas n vomiting. I prefer to play it safe

I do liquids until I feel safe to eat solids... I have noticed each fill is different
