Jenelle1434 9 Posted April 10, 2012 So... I am 3 and a half weeks post op and have my first adjustment this afternoon. It is now 11:45am and my appoitment is not until 3:15pm. Can I eat lunch like normal or should I just drink something to hold me over...? Any suggestions?!?! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2muchfun 8,927 Posted April 10, 2012 I called my Dr.s office the first time and they said it's OK within reason. I wouldn't eat a Chipotle burrito just before you go in but something normal 4 hours before should be fine. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cazzy 725 Posted April 10, 2012 I agree a light lunch several hours before a fill would be fine for most .. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

armymom2012 51 Posted April 10, 2012 I was told to eat a light Breakfast and nothing except my Water until the fill, which was also in the late afternoon. Then you are normally suppose to be on Clear Liquids for 2 days, Puree the 3rd and go back to normal if you are ok to do so after that. Some doctors have a different plan, but thats what I have to do for my fills. Hope that helps. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ro-Jae327 4 Posted April 10, 2012 I was told to actually not eat anything the day of a fill. Only liquids...but each doc is different I guess... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
adorkbl 156 Posted April 10, 2012 Basically they want the pouch empty when you go in for a fill. So if you have no restriction, it shouldn't be an issue. If you have restriction, don't eat something that will still be in your pouch when you go in. So keep it light and drink plenty of Water before hand to make sure it is clear and free.
