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!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
