first fill today

[mstars 0]

get my first fill on today may 7th. when they say to be on liquids does that mean clear or can I have a Protein Shake for Breakfast? can't believe I forgot to ask this before...it's just I'm so excited to get that first fill. I've thr read posts about lllong needles and multiple sticks, so pray it works out ok. I saved a little codine just in case.

The rules i get to follow after a fill are just liquids for the rest of the day, does not have to be "clear liquids". The day after it is ok to have soft foods if tollerated then proceed normally. Personally i do the liquid thing the day of the fill and the day after just to avoid any complications. I ease back into it.

My doctor recommends liquids for the rest of the day after the fill and one day after. Then 2 days mushies. He says the fill makes you swollen. Liquids dont have to be clear. I use Protein Shakes as well.

Those 4 days, I lose weight so I adhere to it. Also I appreciate the mushies when i get to them and then food after that. Good Luck and

ask your doctor what he recommends.

Had my first fill yesterday 4cc. I was told to do liquid so I had chicken broth for dinner. Today I ate cream of wheat for Breakfast only 4oz I was scared to have more, then I will try my Protein shake......I think I am going to stay on liquid (full) not clear for the next few days and work my way back up to soft foods again. I dont mind I have not felt hungry at all after my surgery and If the weight comes off I'm fine with liquid and soft. :redface:
