Realize Band-C CCs to Green Zone?



Recommended Posts

I have the realize-c 11cc band, and I was just wondering--to others that have the same band, how many CCs did it take you to get to the Green Zone?I know everyone is different, but I thought I'd ask anyway.

Good luck and much success to you!

I don't have a Realize band. I currently have 3cc in 10cc band & not in green zone. My Dr just told me "on average it takes between 4cc &7.5cc to reach green zone".

You will get a wide variety of answers.

Your doctor will be able to tell you the average for your band :) I don't have that band, I have a French band that holds 8cc and I'm currently on 5.5. The average greenzone for my band is 5-7. I'm feeling great at the moment and not wanting to eat at all (actually having trouble forcing myself to eat) but I only just got a fill 4 days ago. It probably won't last, so I'm thinking around 6cc for me :)

Sorry I cant help with your exact band though.

I, also, don't have that band. i have a 10 cc band, and my green zone came about 5 cc. But, everyone's body is different, look or your signs. Try not to get overfilled. Best wishes.Karen

I have 6 cc. in a 10-cc band and believe I am now in the zone. Had the last fill of 1 cc 2 days ago and right now, it feels tight and difficult, but am thinking it will loosen up a bit in a few days when I start adding back food.< /p>

just over half usually does it for most people on here, some can do it with very little in the bsand for a long time. 10cc band here with 6.5cc in it and that feels good for me,maybe just a bit more soon. Keep up on the fills and don't fight with the band not feeling hungry for 4-5 is the goal anything less check into a fill...my doctor said every 2 wks until green zone.

I have the 11cc band and I am at 8.5 cc and either at green zone or one fill away I hope. Now I seem to really notice if its real hunger or head/boredom hunger which is good!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
