So I had a fill yesterday, my 5th one, and I was on liquids yesterday. Today we had a cookout at work and I had 3/4 of a hamburger patty with cheese and a small spoonfull of chili. I know that I wasn't supposed to eat it but I had to look somewhat normal in front of my co-workers that have no idea I had this done. Did I screw up big time or is my band okay? I just want some opinions because I feel guilty now.

I think you'll be fine, my doctor wants us to stay on liquids for 36 to 48 hours after a fill, and then proceed with caution, but if you were able to tolerate it ok, I wouldn't think it would cause a big problem. The way I understand it is the liquids after a fill is to let the swelling go down a bit before you eat so you don't get stuck, so if you were able to eat it and not get stuck I would assume you are ok?

Thank you Ready, I feel a little better about myself! It is so strange that some Dr.'s say one thing and others say another!
