Best wishes to you. You are doing great so far. You have a large band. They seem to come in lapband sizes 10 and 14 and in the realize band, size 11. So you have a larger band. They make that decision during surgery depending on the size of your stomach. Hope this helps. Keep up the good work. You can do it. The hard part is behind you, now you just do what you know, take your time and dont stress yourself out. It will come, it will happen and you will be even more happy.

I have a size 14 cc band too. It's neither good or bad. It's just dependent on the size of your stomach. I was joking with my husband saying I must have a huge stomach because not only do I have the largest band, but I definitely have restriction without a fill. Oy vey.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
