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.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
