New fill today--hmmm



Recommended Posts

I'm nine months post surgery. Last month I lost only a lb, after having stayed at the same fill amount as the previous month, when I lost 8. My doctor brought me up from 7.2 to 8. It's about 9 hours later and liquids are going down very slowly, with a lot of burping. It's not painful, but odd...Is this just today's adjustment and I'll be better off on Saturday? The problem is I'm going out of town on Saturday and will be away until Wednesday. What would you do? Wait it out or get an unfill? Never done an unfill before.

I would wait and see. I mean if you are able to swallow without pain, and can keep liquids down, the you are probably okay. Are you on any sort of "phase diet" after your fill, like liquids for 2 days, mushies for the next 2, then soft foods, then solids. I would definitely wait and see but if any pain, and such occurs I would see ur doc. Good luck

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
