Doc's orders AFTER a fill....



Recommended Posts

Just curious...I just had my 3rd adjustment yesterday. My doc told me 2 days of Clear Liquids. I don't remember this rule on my last 2 fills. Maybe I was in denial...or maybe he forgot, but I heard it this time. I don't even have anymore broth in the house...the thought of it makes me feel sick. LOL. What did your doc tell you after your adjustment?

Hi Wyld, My Dr. requires 3 days of liquids ( full or clear) after a fill

Good Luck with your new fill. I always find a fil lto be rejuvenating and makes me more diligence, almost like a brand new start:)

Getting this fill was kinda strange for me. I wasn't eating more each meal, but I was hungry REALLY fast after I ate. My doc said he was surprised I waited so long to get a fill. My last fill was back in October. But like I said, restriction felt fine...I just got hungry again REALLY soon (like a hour) after I had a meal. So far, I feel nothing different with this fill, but experience has told me to wait and reserve judgement for a couple of weeks. LOL

I have an appt for a fill next Friday the 6th usually it is liquids the day before then Clear Liquids the day of and the following day is full liquids again, then a workup to tolerate foods again. I am so looking forward to it since I can now eat a little more than I am suppose too.

3 days of fluids, clear or not

Then mushies for a couple of days

Then introduce solid foods slowly

Gee, I'm surprised I have it memorized by now :)

Hey I haven't had a fill in so long that I can't remember what the Dr. said. It has been since September. LOL Hey but I will go with what Tricia says since we have the same Dr. Hey Tricia are you going to Dallas on the 21st of May? Heck it was August...LOL I can't even remember the date.

Hey Rica!

I'll be in Dallas! Can't wait to meet you! I'm staying at the Hilton, not the Best Western. I also "signed" up for the West End group get together on Friday Night.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
