Dont be worried at all, it is very normal, you might not notice any restriction until after your 3rd or 4th fill. Im about 5.4 in a 10cc band, I have good restriction but it is different for everyone.

I went through the same feelings thinking maybe I am one of those people who this just won't work for- BUT my last fill put those fears to rest! I have 4.5 in a 10cc band and it makes all the difference in the world!! Once you are properly filled you will feel completely different. I simply can not eat anywhere near what I use to eat. Even if I really want to eat by band prevents me from doing so.

It can take a while though-that's something I didn't realize before being banded. I thought the weight would simply just drop off each month and quickly. You will absolutely get there and then you'll have an entire new set of worries like: If I eat this will I get stuck, am I getting enough proteins/water in?

Hang in there-your next fill should get you a lot closer to your sweet spot!:)

it took me 4 fills to actually get restriction, 5 to get good restriction and to get in the green zone, or the sweet spot as my doctor calls it.

I have 2.8 cc in my band right now & I can sill eat normal sometimes I've only had one stuck episode. I go back on the 11th to get another fill. I still eating a lot less then I would when I did have the band and thats the reason we got it in the first place. It's okay.

Same thing here, but it didn't take more than 2 fills for me to notice a HUGE difference. I had a 2 cc fill, then I had another 2 cc's and it was all I needed to know there was something in there! Good luck on your fill, hopefully it will give you some help!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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?
