14Cc Band Fill Questions???



Recommended Posts

Just wondering...and let me say I know every dr is different ....however

those of you who got the 14cc band....how much was your first fill....just curious.

I see alot of those who had the 10 cc band who had 4 cc put in during surgery or their first fill.

I am so excited to get my first fill to hopefully get a little restriction. It is very hard at this point but eating no

more than I am supposed to at this point. Not till Nov. 30th but that time will hopefully go fast.

TIA!

Truly every doctor is different and has a different approach as you know. Some doctors do a slight fill during surgery, some no fill at all. Others are aggressive about doing fills but some doctors do very little. I have a 10 cc band and had no fill during surgery and have had 3 fills post op (at 4.5 cc now). Also, note that many of us don't feel any restriction until after a few fills or so. You may not feel any or much of a difference after your first one.

It will come though.

      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! 😞
