so its been almost a year and your not in the green yet??? yikes! have you lost any weight? I feel like I'm going down this same road!

Great info

Dusty123 you and I are almost alike, 3 fills and 3 months later I'm just noticing the difference right now. I'm at 5.4cc after 3 fills. Surgeons up here in Canada leave few cc during the surgery, had 3.5 when I was banded in October 20, 2014 Everyone is different, my friend never went for a fill yet in almost a year lost 77lbs and still losing and me on the other hand lost 30lbs which half of that was during liquid diet and never lost a pound for 2 months now but didn't gain any either. We have to be patient as it takes time to get to that green zone what they call it. I was frustrated with the wait time in between your fills, up here they will not do any fills until at least 4 weeks is up from your last fill and they only put in a small amounts which could take you close to a year if your band is large and you need lots of CC to get you to that sweet spot but that gives us time to learn a new way of living as we all hear that this is a life changing process and I do believe it's not the band that will change us unless we are willing to change. Small steps at a time, it's not a race it's a marathon so take your time and enjoy few of those big bites that most of us still tend to have

Great post????

I had Dr. Mitchell do my surgery in Calgary and he was awesome, a lady from my work had it done in Ontario with Dr. C. Cobourn and she is very happy with him. Good luck
