Just filled...help PLEASE!



Recommended Posts

I was just filled yesterday and could NOT get liquids down after I got home. I couldn't even keep my saliva in, I kept sliming and throwing up. The band was obviously too tight. My doctor met me at midnight at the office to unfill me. I felt MUCH better.

However today I still feel kinda nauseated, is this normal after a fill? I've been able to sip one slim fast and a few ounces of Water which has taken me all day. I also got down 1/2 of a pudding.< /p>

No problem with my saliva today. I've just been feeling kinda yucky all day, maybe from the stress on my esaphagus from throwing up so much yesterday??

I've never been good about just liquids then mushies for a few days after a fill. I couldn't "cheat" right now if I wanted to. Is this how I should feel for a few days?

Can you PLEASE tell me what you go through, what you are able to eat and amounts for the first 2-4 days after a fill????

If this is normal, I don't want to go get unfilled for nothing. I am determined to help the band work so it can help make me thin...

Help please!!!:confused2:

Thank you,

Kellie from sunny AZ

I was filled yesterday and I'm pretty tight. I can't hardly get anything but mashed potatoes down or I shoot it right back out of my mouth. ddon't drink and eat at the same time. that's what makes me bring it back out of my mouth. its not vomiting cause its just the liquid that I haven't even swallowed.

When getting fills its always best to take it lite 'n easy. You never know your doc, but you should ask that they go conservative. In my life this really is the only thing I am conservative about. :thumbup:

kelrob, take it easy. Just keep doing liquids until you are feeling up to moving on to more and more solids. You should always be able to eat solids, so if it gets to the point where you are noticing you can't eat them, then you still might be too tight. It will take a few days however for your insides swelling to go down. Take good care of yourself!

I had my first fill this past Wednesday and while I can get down fluids, solids and even some mushies make me hurt and I've had the worst gassy feeling. I'm not sure if these foods just don't agree with me, if I'm not chewing well enough, or I'm just eating too much or too fast. I haven't thrown anything up, I just hurt. I measure everything out so I don't think I'm overeating. I've made a conscious effort to chew and eat slowly, so I'm not sure what I'm experiencing now. I was pretty tight the first day, but liquids were going down. Any thoughts or suggestions?

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
