what have you been told to do after a Fill

Ok just want to know what other peoples doctors are telling them to do.

My doctor just wants no food day of fill only liquids (duh common sense I think)

day after fill is liquids also.

But after the second day he states that you can go back to normal eating.

I for one can not I have to be on liquids for about 3 days then mushys for at least 2 before going back to solids.

Just wanted some other feed back.

Thanks so much

I'm to be on liquids the day of a fill and the day after mushies. After that progress as normal.

Just had my first fill yesterday. No instructions from doc. He has me eating solids b/4 and after fill. I can tell I had the fill and I am thrilled. Hoping this does it for me for awhile.

I had my first fill today and the dr said liquids today and tomorrow and mushies and soft food for two days after that. Then I can eat whatever I can tolerate keeping in mind that protein comes first. :wink_smile:

My doc recommends 24 hours liquids, 24 hours full liquid, then mushies and then regular food. I have read a lot of post about people having problems after a fill and having to get an emergency unfill, and that scares me. If nothing else we will get a few more pounds out of the fill diet every once in a while.

I had my first fill yesterday and the doc didn't have me do anything different. I can tell today that I have some restriction though, so I ate "semi-mushies" for lunch and feel nice and full!

I had my second fill today. Like many have posted, I am to do full liquids all day today. Then two days of full liquids, two days of mushies, and then back to adding in with protein FIRST.

I have a very conservative surgeon but he did tell me I "overanalyze" portion size and weights of foods and that I am doing great. Loved to hear it!!!

No food four hours before

Liquids for the first two days after

Mushies for days 3 and 4

Slowly add solids and come back immediately if I am unable to handle food.
