Not sure if I need a fill ?



Recommended Posts

I am six weeks out and lost 15 lbs and about 12 inch all over. I can eat alot and I am never really full. Also I can eat everything. I am not sure if I need a fill. My husban thinks I need one.

I have not ask him. I was there with a group of people. And one of them had been bandit for about 6 weeks and he told her she did not need one. But she also was alot bigger then (I hate to say that):) . He did tell us if we fill hungry 2 hours after we eat then we need a fill.

thanks

The decision to get a fill should be made between you and your doctor after you have a talk about how things are going. There are several factors to be considered, how much you are able to eat in one sitting, how soon afterwards before you begin to feel hungry again, what your average weight loss is, and if you are able to get food down without any problems to name a few. I would ask for another appointment to meet with him without a group of people present so you can specifically discuss your case privately.

I would say time for a fill! I got my first fill the first day of my 6th week out from surgery,,,before that, I could eat anything, just in smaller amounts as my swelling went down...

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
