Diet after a fill

[Royalbee 0]

Good day all, yesterday i had my first fill with 3 cc ( 9cc band), i tried to sip Water i had this throat pain , but the Dr didn't seem to worry about it !

he asked me to come after 3 weeks to have another fill .

i have a question concerning the diet after a fill, the dr did not mention anything about that , and i forgot to ask him, shall I be on a cerain type of diet , i mean liquid diet for 2 days , or shall i eat normally ?

since yesterday i am on liquid diet , i feel myself still restricted though as i mentioned this my first fill.

banded on April 10, lost till now : 24 lbs

Hi, my MD recommends fluids only for 2 days. Good luck.

Royalbee:

My surgeon suggests liquids for a day, mushies for a day, then solids.

I am concerned that you're having pain in your throat. My surgeon takes a little bit out if you have issues swallowing right after he fills you. I hope you're not too tight.

Three weeks between fills might be a bit rushed too. You can tell if you need a fill if you are eating too much at a time (more than a cup), if you are hungry again after eating before 3 hours, and/or if you aren't losing weight.

Hope you get rid of that throat pain.

my doc recommends liquids for 48 hours after a fill with 4 wks between fills.... you can have creamed Soups as long as you blend them....
