Almost 3 weeks post op,I had my first fill/adjustment yesterday and today i have not eaten anything because I have not felt hungry. I have been drinking Water and had 1 coffee. dinner time has just past and still not hungry. Anyone else had this?

yes, i am guessing because you are still (swollen from surgery and now your fill) but that being said, you must keep sipping your liquids (and get as much Protein in as you can as that is your fuel). i am from a place where i eat when i am hungry. i am not on a diet or a set schedule...i just eat (better things). congrats on your surgery and that first fill :)

I had the same issues with some of my fills. My doctor told me to just do liquids for at least 24 hours, when I got my 4th fill and they put in 2 cc they told me to do liquids for 48 hours. I just sipped Water and sipped Protein shakes for that time and that was enough to keep me satisfied.

I was told that sometimes after a fill you swell a bit and that causes some extra restriction that will go away after a few days. Just make sure you are getting liquids in the worst thing to do is dehydrate yourself- trust me- been there done that and you think you will die!

I am told after evry fill.....stay to liquids for 24 hrs after the fill.....and I dont think Im hungry during that time.....

Im not sure if its just I know I cant eat or if its cuz Im not hungry...

I will have to watch and see after next fill.....but Im in the green so im hoping that wont be for a while....good luck and congrats !

Thanks for the input guys, it has made me feel better hearing your experiences. Carolinagirl I am going to stick to the same theory, no hunger no food. Good luck all with your journey guys.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
