  • 10cc in how large a band?? It is possible your pouch stretched a little, happens all the time from overuse, eating. When I begin to feel that I'm eating more than usual, I go on liquids for about 2

It is the very elusive spot where you have enough fluid in your band that you experience restriction that decreases your portion size significately and you are able to go several hours (4) without getting hungry and yet not too much fluid that you become too restrictive/tight and you have a hard time keeping food or water down

Thanks everyone! ;)! I have 10cc fluid, do not feel restrictions only from time to time and not losing any weight.. Now I am getting depressed!

I think I would consider making another appointment with your surgeon. how long has it been since you had a fill? It could be that some of the fluid you have has evaporated.

It has been 3 months now. I have an appointment with my surgeon next week so I am hoping he can look into what is happening. I have felt some port pain more like uncomfort but not often. So I am hoping all goes well on Thursday when I see him.

People call this the 5 Day Pouch Test. You can google it.
