I had my first fill today. The dr. had me go eat something to find out how it was working. I went and ate and was able to eat way to much. I went back to him and we realized my stomach had spasmed, so he filled it with more, told me to go eat some yogurt I did, I was full after a couple of bites so I thought I was ok then get home and eat some refried Beans for lunch and once again I am able to eat more than I should. Has this happened to anyone else? It is a really long wait to get back in to see him and I really hope I didn't mess up leaving to early..:tongue:

I went for my first postop appt today. I asked about fills because I'm starving! The PA said I'll only get 1cc put in at the first visit, another cc can be put in 6 weeks later and another cc if I need it 6 weeks after that! I was surprised! She said that I probably won't feel the proper amount of restriction until I get betwee 2 and 3 ccs. Ugh.

Most people don't get good restriction with their first fill. I didn't feel any restriction until my third fill. Be patient, you'll get there.

I have not had a fill yet but find it interesting your Dr had you eat. Mine makes you have liquids before the fill and then liquids for 2 days after the fill then 2 days of mushies. It is strange how different Dr.s have different quidelines!
