So Ready For My Next Fill!

I had my first fill a week ago today and it is 2cc in a 12cc band, which didn't really do anything for me. I have my next one on Friday the 6th and I'm hoping I get some restriction with this one. I know it's different for everybody, but I'm curious, how long did it take you to get to your "green zone" and how big is your band? Thanks!

Hi, my band is 11cc and I have 5cc. I have a bit of restriction but can still eat to much I think. I am hoping my third fill does it. Good luck.

Very cool, good luck to you too!

10.6 CC in 11 CC band about 6 months of fills.

I am still not in my green zone and it seems to be hard to find it....I have 4.75 cc in a 10 cc band, but that was after my third de-fill taking out .25 cc. I was really tight there, and seem to be soooo loose in the evenings now.

I went for my first fill last Saturday. Everything felt the same until wed when I developed terrible heart burn. My dr took out all fill (3cc) and told me to rest it. I go back wed to get 2 put in. Arrrg but man was I miserable!!

I'm ready for my next fill! I want to hit that green zone soon! I have about a week or so left until my next appt. Not sure what band I have but for my lapband card, I was told it was large. Wonder if that means its the 14cc one?? I have 5.4 cc in right now.

I need to get one too I'm eating and hungry to much! Hang in there Hope the next fill works for you.

Thanks for your stories everyone! I am hoping my doctor will try at least another 2 or 3cc. I tried to schedule it a little earlier but he only does fills on Fridays.
