My doc has me drink liquids the rest of the day after the fill, mushies the next day until noon on the third day. Is this what most docs do?

My doc usually lets us eat what we can tolerate...although there have been times that I will do liquids for the remainder of the day. Espically the "fuller" I get.

I have not been banded yet, but when I went in to visit with the nurse, she said that the doctors doing my surgery suggests doing liquids for 48 hours after a fill to let the band & stomach pouch rest and heal after the fill. Every doctor is going to be different. You will know what you can handle & what you can't after a fill.

My doc says 24 hours after a fill.

That's pretty much what mine says to do.

I had my fill five days ago and yesterday I could hardly keep anything down. This morning I couldn't even drink the Carnation Instant Breakfast. I don't understand because two days ago I was able to eat one piece of homeade pizza with vegetables. Has anyone else experienced this?

My doc says 24 hours of liquids. However, the last time I was there he said I could eat mushies and stuff too. He doesn't seem to be too strict.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
