After fill diet... What does your doctor have u do?



Recommended Posts

I got my first fill today woo hoo lol. 3.5 ml in my 10ml band. I am just curious what other doctors have you do for your diet after a fill since preop diets seem to vary so much doctor to doctor. My doctor has me on Clear Liquids for two days then a day of soft then back to a regular diet. How about you?

I usually go in for my fills around lunch time. He asks me to drink fluids for a couple hours and then back to normal eating, softer items though. Have had 2 fills with no complications. As you said, they are all different. Good luck!!

I had my first fill yesterday too, I was told liquids for a day or two depending on how I'm feeling. Then soft foods for another day or two, then back to normal foods. I'm feeling good, was starving yesterday. Hoping the fill helps, they say it can take 2 weeks until u feel the restriction.

Solids up to 4 hours before the fill, liquids up to 1 hour before, then full liquids for 24 hours, mushy/soft for 24 hours, then back to regular. Now that I have enough fills to get stuck, back to liquids or very softs for 24 hours after being stuck.

I hadn't heard that it may take two weeks to feel restriction. I felt restriction before I had my fill but it did not last more then an hour and I was starving! I can't wait to start my soft foods tomorrow... hate liquids!

      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.
