Fill at 2:30, can I eat breakfast?

SusanP · June 20, 2006

I searched the forums, but didn't find an answer/recommendation for eatting before a fill. I am completely unfilled right now and am scheduled to be at the doctor's at 2:30 to get a fill. (had irritated stomach and needed an unfill about 3 weeks ago) I am starving right now (8:51). Thanks, Susan:help:

I ate Breakfast before both of my fills. My doc said it wasn't a problem. Might want to check with your doctor though.... they all seem to have their own way they like to do things.

Good luck!

When I left my clinic where I had my surgery I was given a folder with post-op diet and other info, some regarding fills. Did you not get anything like this from your place of surgery or lapband Dr's office?

Mine says:

"Please eat a light Breakfast on the morning of your fills. Also, remember that you will be on liquids for 24 hours after your adjustment.

Please remember to bring a bottle of Water to your fill appointment, you will be asked to drink from this bottle before you leave the Clinic to make sure your band is properly adjusted."
