You didn't ruin anything for yourself. My doctor advanced my diet fairly fast.. I was eating solid foods by the end of the second week. He let me advance as I could tolerate it and I did fine. I'm at six months post op now and have lost more than 85 pounds, so I'm fairly sure I didn't screw anything up by doing that! Don't worry!

I am one week post op and starving!!! you have given me hope!

There is hope afterall!

I don't understand why your surgeon would schedule for a fill when you are doing so well? My surgeon only does it if you are having trouble losing weight. I am 5 1/2 months pot-op and down 91 pounds so I haven't had one ever nor will I need one I guess. My target is only 10 pounds away and I will be done at 6 months! Come see me at my outside blog:

Thanks Mickp24, I think that you are right in some ways. I really want a fill though becuase for the last week I've hardly lost anything and Im starving. I feel like I could eat a buffet if I wanted to. So for me I would just like to have some sense of fullness and not be so hungry

Sarah, sounds like we have the same doctor. I am on my second week post op and on a full liquid diet. I have been very strict with myself although sometimes I want to cheat; I'm very scared to do so. I won't be having any regular foods until my fourth week. Thanksgiving is coming up and well I'll be having pudding while everyone else is having their nice dinner place. I've lost 15lbs since November 14th was on 7 days of clear liquids, thank God those days went by pretty quick... how are you doing so far?

I meant plate no place, sorry
