  2. THIS IS MY THIRD LAP BAND! THE FIRST ONE SLIPPED AND WAS REMOVED IN MAY OF 2010 AFTER LOSING 201 LBS.I WAS 102 LBS WHEN IT WAS REMOVED. THEN I GOT ANOTHER 4 CC BAND ON DEC 22, 2010, BUT IT WAS TOO TIGHT SINCE I HAD SCAR TISSUE FROM THE FIRST SURGERY SO MY DOCTOR PUT IN A NEW NON-FDA APPROVED LAP BAND THAT IS SUPPOSED TO BE THE BIGGEST ONE ON THE MARKET. I GOT MY FIRST AND SECOND FILLS, IT WAS 12 CCS BEFORE I GOT RESTRICTION!!! IS THAT RIGHT? CAN SOMEONE TELL ME IF THEY KNOW HOW BIG THE BIGGEST LAP BAND IS!?!?!?! I GOT MY FILL DONE ABOUT 10 DAYS AGO, AND I LOST 10 LBS ALREADY! PLEASE HELP. THAK YOU EVERYONE!
