First Fill this Saturday

[carolann0117 5]

I have my first fill this Saturday. What's on the menu? Do I have to go back to liquids or very soft mushies?? Just wondering.....

I'm a little nervous about getting the fill.

What's your fill stories?????

My doctor said eat light the day of your fill (I had Breakfast, then i just did shakes till my fill in the afternoon), and then liquids for 24 hours after.. but I know some make you do liquids for a few days or mushies.

For me, I got a big fill 5.5ccs, I felt really odd the first 3 days after, when i'd eat, I'd be full for like hours it was the weirdest feeling!! It didn't hurt, just felt strange. Felt normal after a couple of days. But some doctors give really tiny fills then i'd doubt you would have that feeling.

I just got my first fill Jan 7th, 2011 and at first I didn't see any change. My doctor said to do liquids for 2 days, mushy foods for 2 days and so on.....but to be honest with you I did liquids for one day and then mushy for one day because I felt like I was starving. But when I try to eat yesterday I felt full after a couple of bites and I was pleased. Everybody is different and hopefully you see a difference in your first fill.

I am to eat full liquids first 24 hours and mushies second 24 hours. FYI when I stood up from the table I felt this tightening sensation in my sternum area. Not really painful but just a feeling. I told the nurse and she said it was very normal. Oh course it is important to drink a cup of Water before you leave the office. My first fill was 4 CCs. I did not start to see any restriction until I was at 9.4. I am now at 10CC and think I may be at restriction now.

For the rest of the day I was on full liquids, next day soft foods and then told to start working my way back to normal eating.
