tb_pgh 0 Posted March 5, 2013 Question: I got my first fill today and was told to only have liquids today and tomorrow and soft foods like yogurt and cottage cheese for the next 2-3 days before returning to solid food. Has anyone else been told to do this? I am ok with it but just curious what other doctors are doing. Other than that, I love my band and have been feeling great and losing weight. Am down about 28 lbs since surgery on 1/16. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hely88 883 Posted March 5, 2013 Most people are told the same thing as you were. Filling and unfilling can cause a little swelling so easy goes. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
