I'm worried I am too tight. I am on liquids and I am getting water down just fine and soup OK but not great. Are you guys normally extra tight the first day of a fill and then losen up a little after that?

It can go either way.  Try warm liquids, that usually helps.  Don't try to drink too much if you are having trouble.  Tomorrow it could get better but if it doesn't call the doctor's office.  Wishing you the best.

I agree with Lifebeauty.  A lot of people loosen up a bit in 24 hours, but not everyone.

I do just warm water , clear broth, and liquid protein for at least 24 hours.  Then liquid mushies, then mushies then thicker mushies and begin real food.    If you then think too tight, you just might be.    My rule is that if you think you are you are, no one can feel for you the tightness.  A lot of people like me needed a lot of fills and some need none and others a tad.  follow your body and don't be too tight!!!  You are too important to destroy your body!  Good luck!
