I have no idea what my band capacity is. I know my Dr. (Dr. Darrin Hansen, Salt Lake City UT) told me that I have a larger band. Before my fill I didn't feel like I was really getting full, just watching what I ate because of the surgery and not because of anything I felt. So far, since my fill, I've only had a Protein shake, I'm supposed to avoid solid foods today and do mushy foods tomorrow.

Hello everybody, I'm Brett. I'm 28, 5'10 and my weight when I decided to get banded was 385 lbs. which was 10/14/08. I was banded on 12/9/08. My surgery weight was 367 lbs. I got my first fill this morning, 3cc's and weighted in at 352 lbs. I'm really excited about how well things seem to be going for me so far. I'm able to get in and out of my wife's Prism without struggling or anything, seat belts have started to fit me again, I'm not winded walking up and down stairs and my pants are already getting too small for me and I've only just begun. I thought that 3cc's seemed pretty aggressive and I've felt a bit off since the fill, so I was searching Google and that's how I came across this site. :grouphug:
