When Is Your First Fill After Surgery? I am able to eat more food now!!



Recommended Posts

At the moment I am eating solids (1st fill 12 Dec) and in the last few days have found myself eating way too fast but with no problems. Most of the food I eat is not too solid (not big on meat) and I stick to about 1/2 - 3/4 cup of food at a time. I hope once I get a fill my body will let me know to slow down again. Of course now that I've put it out there, I will have to make the effort to slow down, even without the fill !! :bounce::bounce:

Hi Summer, I sympathize. I was banded on Nov.15 and scheduled for 3 fills, Dec. 17 is my first with 2 more in January. I am almost 3 weeks post op and feel back to normal in terms of appetite. I am eating most regular foods and find myself wanting to snack constantly. I do feel that I feel fuller faster than before and I don't push that feeling. But I can't wait to get my fill because like you I feel I'm gaining the weight I lost just after the surgery. Good luck!!!

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

      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! 😞
