KassieRose 60 Posted March 23, 2012 I had my first fill today (had myself soooo psyched out but it went great!) and the doctor said to back off for the next 24 to 48 hours. But I am craving something... goldfish. I used to eat them all the time before my surgery but haven't had them since. I always chew them to a sort of baby food consistency when I eat them, so do you think having a few of them would be okay? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
legnarevocrednu 47 Posted March 23, 2012 I would finish out the day on just liquids. Slowly introduce solids and see how it goes. But I wouldn't push it today just to be on the safe side! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ducker2010 17 Posted March 24, 2012 You should stay on liquids for 24 hours. Seriously. The fill can make your stomach swell. It's only 24 hours and you'll be back to normal... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

honk 780 Posted March 24, 2012 No I don't think crackers are a good idea. Most doctors call for full liquids 24 hours after a fill and mushies the next 24. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ducker2010 17 Posted March 24, 2012 I have yet to hear of a doctor who doesn't say to be on liquids for 24 after a fill. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jen75 33 Posted March 24, 2012 My doc gives me a handout with instructions, labwork needed (if any), how much I have lost or gained, and what they put in or removed. It always says liquids for 24-48 hours after a fill. I like this sheet. You should ask for one at each appt! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jbys 0 Posted March 24, 2012 I've heard 2 days liquids, then mushy until comfortable with regular food again. I'm currently on day 2 and haven't even been able to handle the liquids. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

May need to get just a little bit out. 1 Heidi Miller Elordi reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
