i get a little tired just from being on liquids for a couple of days after a fill. Could that be it?

You had to do liquids for a couple of days? I only had to do liquids for 24 hours following the fill then soft for a day.

Being tired doesn't necessarily relate to having a fill. As mentioned if you're on liquids for a day, you're probably not getting enough nutrition so it could be part of it. Wait until you get back to your normal eating and don't stress. Watch the tightness; if you can't get your solids down you could be too tight. Good luck!

@ ccsbulldog...doc told me 24-48 hours after a fill. Definitely 24hrs...but if things are going down a little slowly the next morning, I do another day of liquids just to make sure the band is settled, any possible swelling is gone, etc.

This whole process is very emotional and I think a lot of people dont realize it...I think a fill is very stressful and can leave you exhausted. Not the procedure itself but all the hopes and dreams associated with it and the natural fear of failure...

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
