Eating after a fill

I was just wondering what kind of diet everyone is on after they get filled. I got my first one today (2.5cc) and was told clear liquids for today, reg liquids for 2-3 days then puree for 2-3 days then the soft for 2-3 then reg foods again. 9 days seems like a long time. How long are you on a special diet after a fill? Is my dr being overly cautious or does everyone take this long to get back to reg foods after a fill?

For me it is two days liquid, two days mushies then cautiously proceed back to solids.

I had my first fill yesterday also.i have the small band.he gave me 1.5ccs he told me liquid for 24hours then mushy 24hours then regular foods.

I have no food restrictions. My Dr. said to eat as normal.

Two days full liquids, two days soft foods, then regular diet.

Wow everyone's diet after getting a fill sounds so much better than mine. My dr told me liquids for 10days after a fill. It's exactly what I had to do after I got the band put in. Sounds a little strict right? But I have tried eating a couple of times since my fill (which was last Wed) but it's been hard. I've actually had my food come back up 3 different times. So, I've been sticking to the liquid as much as I can.

My doc's post fill diet depends on how aggressive he thinks it is and how restricted we are. The more restriction, the longer the post fill diet.

2 days liquid, 2 days mushies, and back to solids.

I had my first fill last Thursday. My doctor told me liquids for the rest of the day, soft foods on Friday and regular food on Saturday. This may change on the next fill because I don't hardly have any restriction. I am so ready for restriction because I find myself grazing again. I know that is the worst thing you can do. Also it seems that I get hungry about every 3-4 hours. I have noticed that my portions are slightly smaller. I know I have to be patient.
