  2. Have not seen anything on realize band but my vg band can hold up to 11cc account the tubing holds some of the saline in it. I also have 9 to 10cc in it have very little restriction but my main problem is drink when eating and it flushes food right through the band and i sometime cheat the band example i have a hard time eating bread, toast, cake, donuts ect.. So i dunk them in milk to make them soagie and they go down easy but i get on a sugar craving binge and go nuts any suggestion on how to avoid a sugar binge, anyone got a suggestion,thanks


  3. OAKY I have been looking for a plateau buster I will try this out. I have been banded for a 14 months no complications at all but have found a way to fool the band while eating. I could not eat any bread, cake ect.. at first. But then after a short while about four or five months of PBING I figured out to dip my toast in coffee or my cake in milk and it would right down and could eat as much as I wanted. starting weight 342 weight now 280 to 292 back in forth I do workout some try to go on 3 to4 miles runs/walks. have got about 9cc in vg band. biggest problem DRINKING WHILE EATING I KNOW ITS WRONG any ideas on this drinking while eating? thanks in advacned for your reply..


  4. Let me ask just one dum question been banded since may 2007, when u have a leaking band or tubing leaking does all the Fluid leak out of the tube or just a small portion of the fill or does it depend on where the hole or leak is? I still feel some restriction when eating to fast. But when the doctor gives me a fill he will with draw all the fluid out to see how many cc I have in me then refiill the band but when doing this somethimes or the last time he could not suck all the fluid out and he said because he thinks he collaspe the tubing when he try to suck out the fluid with a needle . so he couldn't tell me for sure how many cc i had in me but the chart shows I think 8 or 9cc I HAVE THE VG BAND. I ask him if I had a leak he said I dont think so but just put one half of a cc and had been putting 1cc. I had gain a little weight but it was over the Holidays one or two lbs. Been stuck at same weight for three months. exercise 4 to 5 times week is only reason i dont gain a ton of weight back.
