Hi I am not sure when you were banded. I have had 4 fills so far, not sure how much is in their. My Dr does not like you to eat much the day of the fill, just liquids if possible. I have noticed that sometimes I feel more restriction a day or so later. With my first few fill after a few days things went down easer. At this point I may be just about at the right spot. I was banded in May, my last fill was in Sept. when ever I think about getting another fill, I eat someting too fast and it just does not go down. I end up with it comming back up. A few weeks ago it was almost once a day. but today was the first time in a week or so. I must eat really slowly. I eat alot of tosted sandwiches as I can take smaller bites.

Just take it slow and see what happens

First, please do not type in all caps, it makes it really hard to read.

Second, you received a fill today, you should not be eating food of any sort, liquids are the mode for the day of fills, gives your system a chance to settle down.

bread, cake, chips, all items that should be the furthest from your eating plan.

Give your system a chance to settle down and get used to the fill. Start liquids, then mushy, then slowly transition back to solids.

Surgery 6/9/09--- as of 12/9/09 down 55 lbs

Actually, what you eat the first 24 hours after a fill varies according to doctors. Mine has no restrictions but common sense...good choices, chew thoroughly, take small bites, stop eating that food if you're having difficulty and eat something softer.

Another person on this forum said she's on liquids for 2-3 days, then mushies for 3 days.

      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.
