Green Zone 1St Fill



Recommended Posts

I feel so blessed I'm three weeks post fill and down 10 lbs. My doc gave me 4CC which I thought was a lot for the first fill. I feel like he was right on. I have gotten stuck a few time. And boy the slime was more then I bargained for. But you live and learn. CHEW ON LADIES!

I had my first fill 2 hours ago. It was also 4cc. I was hungry when I went in but have not been since the fill. I am to drink shakes for a couple days. and then soft food for another few. I haven't even got back to "regular food" I thought he would do my fill at 6 weeks. but it's only been 4 weeks since my surgery. I am a little scared because up until now I haven't had any problems at all. hmmmm wondering what this will bring. (right before Thanksgiving).

Think of Thanksgiving dinner no differently then any other dinner. Pick and chose wisely and you will be fine! It is about being with family, not eating. Changing your mindset on things really helps.

I am not really worried about eating too much because I have not felt like I need more then I am eating yet. Just worried about having something get stuck or something with all the family around. Because I don't know what the fill will change for me.

The first fill is the only fill I have ever had because I still do not get hungry. I eat my cup of food and chew the best I can. I was worried like you and that has helped me to chew well because I do not ever want to have a stuck episode.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
