I went to my first post op doctor's appoinment today. He scheduled my first fill for November 26. They were going to schedule it just before Thanksgiving, but decided it wouldn't be good with the holiday just around the corner. They were thinking that if there was any problem with the fill, it would be too hectic a time. I was thinking I needed the fill (fix) to keep me "good" through the holiday. Oh well. He also yanked off the last two sterile strips. I decided he could, but I wasn't. If he caused it to open, he could repair. On the 26th he said I would also meet with a dietician.

I go November 6th for my first fill. I wish I could go now. I'm hungry all the time. I notice that I can't eat as much as I used to in 1 sitting, but my hunger is definitely coming back.

I've been introducing solids into my diet, but for the most part I'm still on mushies. I've had chicken breast - hurt going down, and I've had sausage - the thin kind cooked crispy, it went down just fine. I had baby carrots and celery last night dipped in ranch dip, went down just fine.

Mona patti, what day were you banded? I was banded on 10/18 and am off Clear liquids, and just on liquids. Are you having just the shakes and cream Soups? Tomato or chicken?

Thanks!

BANDED 10/16 and first fill is scheduled on 11/19 but my doc said I could reschedule to the week of the 12th through the 16th so I have time to adjust b4 the holiday...sounds good to me...LOL I am already hungry. I will call Monday and reschedule to that week!

My fill appointment is Nov.27th. Just after thanksgiving and I think that is a good thing. I would hate to be on Clear Liquids during thanksgiving.

I was banded October 15th and my first fill is November 21 -- the day before Thanksgiving. Yikes! I can't say I'm really hungry. In fact, I've pretty much just been drinking my Protein Shakes -- and LOTS of Water. My dr. requires a 2-week liquid diet after surgery, so next week I'll try mushies.

I had my fill appointment changed to Nov. 20th: a week sooner. YeeHaa!:bounce:

Yeah, I had a chicken breast and it was not pretty. I can eat most other solids but the no no's (dry meat and pasta) I have to be very careful with even without fill. And I still sometimes eat too fast and that hurts.

I'm scheduled for Thursday, 11/15 (right before Thanksgiving). I don't know whether that's bad or good...
