I had lap band surgery 1week ago today. I have one more week on the clear liquid diet and then move on through the levels. I will be well into the soft foods stage by the time of my first fill. After the fill do I go back to clear liquids and work my way the diet levels again. Or do I stay on the soft food level.

I had my first fill wed and I was on 2 days of full liquids, 1 day of soft and tomorrow I can advance as tolerated. Your dr should give you instructions when you get your fill.

My Doc has me do 24 hours of liquid after a fill then go back to solids slowly experiencing how my band behaves.

You'll find every doc is different, so be sure to specifically ask yours, but most just advise people to go on 24 hours of liquids then back to normal food as tolerated.

Thanks to all. That clears it up for me. I couldnt stand the thought of 2weeks on the liquid diet again!

My doctor says 24 full liquids and then 24 mushies. Then back to solids.
