1st fill tomorrow



Recommended Posts

I'm getting my 1st fill tomorrow. I was wondering how long all of you had to fast before a fill.

They just told me not to eat anything before my fill - that day. My post-fill instructions are 2 days of liquids and 1 day of soft foods/mushies - then back to solids. I'm getting a fill tomorrow too (my 4th). I'll be thinking about you. Good luck!! Becky

Hi Catemc. I had no restriction after surgery, none after my first fill, and none after my second fill. Things did change after my third fill. Everyone is different, so it is hard to say what is "normal". Sometimes it can take a few days, or even a week or two for a fill to take full effect. Good luck to you!!! Becky

I didn't fast for either fill. I felt nauseous after my first fill, so I expected the same for my second. I made sure to eat a good Breakfast the morning of my second fill, since I knew I wouldn't have anything besides liquids for the rest of the day.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
