Recommended Posts

I have a 14cc band.I was wondering who else does and how many cc's it took to get to the green zone for everybody?

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

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 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.

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

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
