I have been going to the gym lately and it seems like i have so much more energy. I did 35 min on the bike and and 25 min on elliptical and then the circuit of weight training. Not only did I workout longer, i was at a much higher pace than usual. I was also rockin' out to some rock music from the 80s! that might have helped, i'm sure to the annoyance of others at the gym. Weight has been stagnant for the past 2 weeks. have to admit i havent been a "good doggie" either. Looking forward to my 1st fill this Thursday... 4cc i am told.

That is awesome!!! Wow, 4cc? I have been banded for 4 months and have only had two fills of 1cc each. At my 3rd fill appointment we didn't add any afterall, because my restriction seems to be pretty good right now. Good luck to you.

Isn't having energy and endurance at the gym the greatest thing? I love it too. Congrats on that awesome NSV!

The surgeon expects me to get around 8-9 cc ultmiately. He thinks the band is big for and therefore i need to get filled several times before i feel restricted. I understand from this site that everyone has a different fill level to hit the "zone". Hopefully i wont be waiting until the spring to get there. Will keep you posted on my experience with 4 cc.
