Tomorrow marks my first fill. I am a little nervous but I want to make sure I follow the protocal correctly.

I know you have to go to full liquids for two days after a fill but my question is PRIOR to the fill can I eat normally? Like tomorrow morning can I eat Breakfast with solid foods or should i not eat anything or should I only drink liquids? Can someone please let me know from their experience what is best.

My fill appt is at 8 am so if I need to not eat anything that won't be too difficult but I don't want to make a mistake and have a problem without realizing it. Thanks!

I had my first fill yesterday. My doctor's office just said a 2 hour fast prior to the fill. A really neat post I read said also to make sure you stay WELL hydrated prior (this really helped me) and not to have TOO big a dinner the night before. Good luck!

I can eat normally before the fill, but I have to do liquids the remainder of the day. I go back to solids the next day per my doctors orders.

      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?
