Ugh I just got a fill. I was able to eat tuna patties before so I thought ok I will make some. Nope that will be a forever NO food. That was awful.

You should be on liquids for 2 days, then go to mushies for 1 day. You might be able to eat them again, but you won't know that for several days.

My post fill diet is also long:

3 days liquids & shakes

3 days mushies & shakes

....soft...then progress to reg diet

It's like doing a 5 day pouch or post-op surgery diet after every fill.

Couple thoughts...one, definitely remember that worked with the last fill needs to be 'retested' after the next fill. The slightest additional restriction can make a yes food a no food real quick lol. But also remember, give yourself a few weeks after the fill to truly test the band. By than the inflammation has subsided and the band has been well used giving you an idea of how lose/tight that band will be at that particular fill. Lastly, band restriction fluctuates from day to night, day to day.. If you notice your band is slightly more open than normal, take advantage and eat a tuna patty :)

Although I have foods I hesitate to eat because they consistently cause issues, I still keep them on the list for 'open days' :)

This may be a dumb question.

Since surgery I have this burp tht just happens. It comes mostly after I know I'm done eating. Sown times when changing positions too. My surgeon said this may never go away but it's not harmful. Question is, is this considered productive burping or not? If not, what's the difference? Is pb dangerous?

I have the grossest loud burps. I also hiccup when I eat too much. I was told that is part of the band.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
