I Just Had My First Fill I Was Wondering How Long Everone Had To Stay On Liquids, Soft Solids And Mushie, Ect.... This Is Driving Me Crazy It Has Been Weeks Since I Had Solid Foods. Banded Oct 5th First Fill Oct 27th.

Puglet...I would think you could increase your diet...I had my surgery on Aug 15 and 6 weeks later had my first till...during that time I increased to ground moist meat...ground turkey works well, and mash potatoes, and soft veggies....than after my first fill (only fill so far) I was on clear liquid that day and after that to soft foods and now ...pretty much what I like with in reason,,,no noodles or bread...I think you have to go by trial and error..just take it slow...

My docs say one day of liquids after a fill, then on to soft and regular foods in the next two days. A fill at 24 days out is pretty early; maybe they want you on the post-op diet because you're still pretty close to post-op, still.

I just had my first fill on Oct 25th (surgery date 9/11/06). 1cc in a 4cc band. I am not having difficulty eating anything...not feeling much restriction either.

Matter of fact I was able to eat a 6 oz steak, some noodles, and corn for dinner tonight......I shouldn't be able to eat that much. I have a follow up

visit on Nov 8th so I may need an additional fill. Is this normal??

I hear other people talking about not being able to eat much after a fill and I wonder if I'm doing something wrong :cry

Thanks you for any comments or suggestions!

I have a question, y'all - how many fills can you get in a lifetime?

Very curious...

Hi Puglet,

I had my first fill 4 weeks after banded. I was on full liquid for two days and soft diet for 2 days. Now I'm eating solids (protein).

Good luck to you.

Liquids 24 hours for me, then back to normal, if ya call it that.

Did y'all have a pre-op diet? I have been on clear liquids for, well, this is week 3 now.

Thanks in advance.

Kat.

Mine has me do liquids the remainder of the day of the fill, then back to solids the next day!

Had my first fill today. It's been five weeks since surgery.

Fill center said rest of today liquids, tomorrow soft foods, Saturday back to regular foods.

Hello- I am new to the forum. Banded 9-22 by Dr. Martinez. I had my first fill on 11-3, 1.3cc. I am not having any restriction. I'm exercising like crazy to try and get the weight off. I am considering going to Dr. Curry in OH. as I don't feel that I got the proper fill in Mexico. Has anyone had any experience with Dr. Curry? Just concerned since I didn't get the proper fill under Fluro will I get it with out??

i had my fill yesterday morning, i was on liquids all day yesterday and had "mooshies" today - scrambled egg for b-fast and cheddar mashed potatoes for lunch.

i had surgery 09 October.
