How much will a 4cc band hold?

Sounds like a silly question but it is a serious one. I just had my 3rd fill and they filled my 4cc band to 4cc. I asked if that meant I wouldn't be able to get any more the Dr (and I trust him very much) said that a 4cc can take more than 4cc. Anyone ever hear this or have any experience or info on this? Thanks

well I just had it done and I know last time he filled my half full 2cc's and I though hmmm its not that bad , but then after a few days about 6 it got tight. For a long itme it was good. Ive lost more weight and I think it naturally got loose. So give your band time Im sure it will tighten up. Im gonna wait and see if it will , and I know stress and exercise does it to me anyway . I cant eat chicken cause its too big and I do eat fast , adn confuse hunger for thirst

hmmm not really , I think that its the same as before, wich I thought is weird and my first fill was like that too and then it got tighter. I think Im like some others and I just stop before I have that uncomfortable feeling and Ive been slowing down more too.
