    What exactly is the green zone?

  • I have a 14 cc band and a little over 11 cc's in it. My doc said that she's never seen it happen that a 14 cc band goes over 13 cc's without feeling restriction. I feel like I am close to green, but n

I do, I'm at 10.7 and just got there. Took me a year of consistent fills to get there!

Ive been banded since July 31 of this year I'm at 6.5cc in my band.

I do and as of tonight I am at 7.5cc. I have been in the green zone but as I have lost more weight, I needed more fill. Hopefully back there again, but still working hard to keep on losing.

I do too and am at 7.8 and in the greenzone, I was a 7.5 a few weeks back but because I lost around my stomach I had to get a small fill to put me back where I needed to be.

I also have a 14cc band and currently have 5 1/2 and not yet at green zone <_< .I have a Dr. appt. today for a fill and hope this will get me to the green! My doctor said when having a 14cc band in most patients to get to the green zone it takes about 7 1/2 to 10cc to get there !

I have a 14 cc band and am filled 4.2 cc's

Not at the green zone yet, but feel very very close!

I have an AP Large Lap Band that will hold 14 cc's; I had surgery in April 2012; a fill in May, July, August and October; I have a total of 7 1/2 cc's and just hit the "green zone" with the last fill in October. So, it took me SIX (6) months to get there. . . slow and steady.

What exactly is the green zone?

Thanks for the feed back! Its good to see and hear from all you 14cc brander's.

I have a 14cc..4th fill coming up on nov 26 th..up to 9cc.hope this fills it..green zone

I have a 14cc band I was banded 6/26 and I'm at 9.6 cc with a fill scheduled for 12/14 I'm not sure if I will go much tighter I'm losing steadily and not having any "stuck" issues although it will be 6 weeks since my last fill I usually do one every 4 weeks but they were booked up so I'm hoping I won't start eating everything is sight I'm down 70lbs since 6/15 when I started the pre-op

I have 3cc's in my 14cc band and doing great.

I have a 14cc band and just got my second fill yesterday. At about 5cc's currently.

I have a 14 cc band and a little over 11 cc's in it. My doc said that she's never seen it happen that a 14 cc band goes over 13 cc's without feeling restriction. I feel like I am close to green, but not quite. At this point my doc only does .2 cc's at a time, where before it was pretty aggressive fills.

It's so different for each of us- everyone's body is different.
