First Fill yesterday - starving today



Recommended Posts

Wanted to know if anyone else experienced this. I got my first fill yesterday....and today I am starving. I had a yogurt for Breakfast and now having some coffee and that would usually last me for a while....now 2 hours later and my stomach will not stop grumbling.

I am always starving after my fills, but its my own fault, I've only had 2, but on both of them I haven't eaten anything before my fill, once because I got busy and didn't have time, and once because I was thinking about my weigh in and didn't want to blow it with my lunch, silly I know! So after my fills I am starving!

I usually have my fill in the mornings, but I always eat a biscuit and some type of meat before I go. One time I ate this and my stomach still was gworing while my dr. was doing my fill. lol:smile:

Hi, I had my first fill today and one of the reasons that I was so eager to get the fill was because I was starving the days before. It seemed like as soon as the surgery swelling went down, I started to feel hungry then starving. My surgeon told me that the first fill would not "cure" the hunger feeling because he doesn't want to over fill on the first one, and since you should only eat like 2 oz for a few days after fill try to go about every 3 hours and have high Protein 2oz of something to help. Don't know if that will help you at all, but that's what I was told today. Now he scheduled my 2nd fill for next month and he said THEN you'll really not be hungry or starving anymore. Take care. :thumbup:

I've had 2 fills so far and I was starving after both. But thats because I don't eat anything on the day I'm getting a fill, and then for 3 days after fills I'm on Clear Liquids so I am always starving during that period. I had a fill 3 days ago, and I just had a Protein Shake - my first non-clear liquid in 3 days and boy did it taste great lol! I'm on full liquids now, for 2 days but that will be fine since at least I can get in my Protein and won't feel like I'm so hungry all the time!

Did you loose any weight before your first fill?

      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!
