Hi there! I also have an 11cc band and I have 7cc already. I feel the restriction alright, If I don't chew correctly or eat to fast, I really pay for it. but it wasn't until thi last fill that I felt the restrictio. Now, everyone is different so you might feel it way before that. good luck!

Mine is 11cc, I have had two fills for a total of 6 cc. I have noticed a slight difference. Getting two more cc next Friday, doc says this will be " the one"!

I believe I am at 8 in 11 cc and feel restrictionif I eat too fast or too much but until Sunday didn't feel that much different and was very frustrated. Then Sunday I got stuck and had a bit of a pb episode and until this evening felt like I was in green zone but now not sure and not sure of it was due to pb or just it decided to work?!?. I read on here but can't find it - the week of/before your period it can be tight and I worry that is all it was - it was awesome though and gave me hope- now tonight back to being hungry :-(. My nurse practitioner said they have noticed this band seems to take more fills to get to green zone - she even has a lady at 10cc she said so there is hope, I'm thinking of going in next week and seeing of she will go w a 1/2 cc and hoping it will be perfect! Good luck everyone!

I have one of them. Currently sitting at 9cc. The restriction is a huge difference from previous fills. I have to eat super slow and small bites chewed good or else I throw up. So now I believe I'm in the green zone.

Oh and don't worry about throwing up its all part of learning to live with the band. Also you will feel much relief from throwing up.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
