I had my first fill in today. My doctor told me that I need to be on clear liquid until Monday. Yuck...I am starving and dread having to drink chicken broth for 3 days...I was just getting used to eating food again. 6 weeks post op and was starting to see a plateau at weight loss. I started at 211 and currently 185. For the last 3 weeks have been fluctuating between 182-185. I was definitely able to eat a little more than 2 teaspoons full for the first few weeks after surgery. I hope I did the right thing having a fill. I wonder what would happen if I have yogurt or something before Monday. Has anyone eaten anything after their first fill.

I didn't have any pain with clear liquids but when I drank a protein shake I did experience a little pain especially when I drank it too fast. I ate some chicken yesterday and experienced a little discomfort but not much, not able to eat very much at all, just a few bites and I'm full, and still losing today 177.5 so far 34 lbs. almost half way to my goal.

I had my 1st fill last Thursday and had to be on clear liquids until today which counting Thursday was 4 days. I think 4-7 days is fairly normal, but then again I guess it depends on the doctor. It seems like the more I read some doctors want you to be on liquid for a few days after the fill and some don't so I guess it depends on who you ask, which is confusing to say the least.
