I was banded on December 22 and my first fillis not until Febraury 7th. Is this okay? I was supposed to get a fill sooner but my DR. is having kneee surgery.

Second Question: Do you have have do just liquids after you get your first fill?

Every Doctor is different. After fills I am on mushies for 2 days and then back to regular food.< /p>

[bandster_1007 1]

after my fill i am on liquids for 48 hours, then mushies for 48 hours then solids.

jennie.you may want to try to post a new thread it will get better response.

I am on "full" liquids for two day and then mushies for two days after a fill.

[bandster_1007 1]

my liquid rule is anything through a straw.

last night i had pureed chicken (1/4 cup) and mashed potatoes and gravy (1/4 cup). i was stuffed.

"Do you have have do just liquids after you get your first fill?"

Like others have said, every doctor is different. My doc says three days of Clear Liquids, one week of full liquids, one week of mushies, then back to regular food. It is overkill, but it does help to curb hunger by the mental game of "well, my doctor said I had to." This band is 80% mental and 20% physical.<!-- google_ad_section_end -->
