  1. I was Banded October 11, 2010, I just had my first fill last Wednesday, November 10th. I was told that I have the large band which holds 14cc's and that it was pre-filled with 5cc's. At this first fill I by accident received 2&1/2 cc's of saline, I feel the pain in my chest when I stupidly eat bread or take to large of a bite but other than that no restriction. I would think that with 7&1/2 cc's of saline I would feel restriction. Any way I have lost about 40 lbs. but that includes the 28 I lost on the 2 week pre-op liquid diet! Are there any other young guys out there who recently got banded? I am 24 nearly 25. Ryan
