So I've only had one fill and still feel super hungry. I feel like i don't have a band. . I have my next fill 9/13, i can't wait. I really want to lose at least 30 lbs before xmas. How may fills did you have to get to feel restriction? And how many cc's. What band did you get?

Every person and every doctor is different.I felt restriction with no fill and my first one was 3.5 cc.others .others have had 4-5 fills and are at 3.5 cc.

i just got my 5th fill today on a 14 cc band, i'm currently at 7.8 cc's, the doctor told me that hopefully with this fill i would get to my green zone, i too was really hungry but afraid to overeat, i was eating a cup of food and she told me that for me it wasn't enough food so we'll see in a couple of days how i feel....

I know it's different for everyone, but it helps me to get feedback. thanks for you response.

I have 10 1/4cc on a 14cc band and now i kind of feel am in the greenzone, it took me all this time toget there. I can feel the restriction finally, my doctor was considering removing this band and replacing it for a smaller 10cc band, thank god is working now.. I felt hungry for like the longest time, hang in there, it will get better...

I had my first fill last Wed. I have a 10cc band, my doctor added 2 cc's so I have a total of 3 in my band now. I'm only about 10 or so weeks post-surgery, and I can tell with this adjustment that things are harder to swallow and I have to be extra careful. I'm still becoming pretty hungry before time for my next meal, so I guess I'll have to get more added next month. I asked my doctor how much he's ever had to add to someone's band and he said no more than 7 cc's. So I'm getting there.... but I'll be glad to find that greenzone too!

Can't wait! Green zone! who ever said this was the easy way is full of shi+. Sorry for language.
