Would having a fIll on 11/23 ruin Thanksgiving???

[zeniada 9]

I have decided that I need another fill and want to get it done next week on the 23rd or I would have to wait another month...

Does anyone think that by getting a fill that close to Turkey day that I may ruin it or miss out on anything?

I think it depends. There is always the possiblility the fill will be too much and you won't be able to keep food down. If I were you I would go for it, rather than wait a whole month. Hope it goes well and happy Thanksgiving!

I would go ahead and get the fill when you can.

I'm partial though because I'm not a huge fan of the Thanksgiving dinner (sucks having a birthday in late November and always having turkey and pumpkin pie for your bday dinner, lol).

Im having lap band surgery on the 23rd....so I say go for it!

My answer would be if you can get a morning fill on the 23 you will probably be able to eat by noon of 25. My family has a pretty large Thanksgiving with my sisters' inlaws and my brother's step children. They don't know about my surgery and I would'nt really want to discuss it or make up reasons why I was'nt eating. I have been pondering seeing if I can get a fill on Monday or Tuesday as I don't have any restriction and Monday will be two weeks since my last fill.

Thanks All...yes I will be getting the fill around 10:30 am so I hope to be ok by the 25th...I dont eat alot as it is but just dont wanna have to worry about not being able to eat nothing at all while every one else is chowing down it's a mental thing you know. :blushing:

I was supposed to get my first fill on the Monday of thanksgiving week. I opted to move it to the next Monday.

With it being my first fill, I am not sure what to expect etc. I don't want that stress to ruin my holiday.

The food on Thanksgiving was never a big deal for me, it is more enjoying my family.

If I had already had a fill and knew what to expect, I might feel differently.
