    3rd fill same weight?

    Don't be discouraged, took me 8 months to get restriction. I had my surgery on 9/10/12. Gained and lost 10 lbs off and on. I have a 14 cc realize band. I have 10.5 cc in my band.
  2. I had my surgery 9/2012 and I haven't lost weight until now!! I knew it would take longer because I picked realize band and it holds 14cc. Im at 10.5cc. I get full with a few bites and don't feel like snacking!! Now it's up to me to not stretch it and try to keep the restriction!!! Reason I picked realize band is because its not to tight around the stomach. Thanks for reading!!

  5. You have to take into consideration any water retention if you've been regular with bms. Time, clothes.

    2nd fill yesterday no restriction

    Now that I'm in the green zone my cravings for carbs have decreased because I get full with Protein. It took me 8 fills to get here. 10.5 in a 14cc band
  7. Reason I ask if you passing gas or having bms is to rule out obstruction
  8. Could be a virus or bowel obstruction or possibly Something wrong with your band. Make sure to go to er if you can't keep liquids down. Will cause dehydration which leads to acute renal failure.
