The fill is when ur doc injects a small amount of saline into the band via your port. The avg time to get your 1st fill is about 6 weeks after surgery. My biggest struggle after surgery was not being prepared enough w/having decent tasting liquids on hand. The other thing was keeping in mind that the time after the surgery was for healing and not weightloss....any weightloss b/f ur fills is bonus.

So taste your broths, puddings, jellos, popsicles now so you know what you like and will have them stocked. Plus ur protein shakes.
