I have had my fourth fill and am at 3.00 cc's in 4cc's band.

Have lost about 52 pounds in the past 4 months.

Surgery in Monterrey, Mexico with Dr. Rodolfo Sanchez

Update! I have now lost 45lbs and I got my second fill on 11/6 of .4cc putting me at 1.6cc, I also started a work out plan 4 days ago and have gone to the gym everyday so far so here's hoping it helps! :)

I was banded on August 30, 2006 in Port Jervis with Dr. Kwon. I was a self pay. I have lost 50 pounds to date and have heart burn.

Second fill today There were only 2. cm left from original fill of 1.0. Now at 1.5 cm. So far so good. Now let's see how the body does with this new information.

The scale isn't changing but my husband comments that there is less of me to hug. What wonderful words!!

Jo Ann

I had my third fill this past Friday. I'm really restricted. I'm hoping it loosens up a bit as I can't even drink all of my water for the day.

I'm down 49.5 pounds....grrr, fighting for that last .5 of a pound!

  • 2 weeks later...

Had my second fill three days ago, *still* at the same amount lost. Oh well, hopefully this will jump start the loss again. Only had .5 cc in the bad, from an initial 1.5 fill, so they took me back to 1.5cc.

I'm not going to wait so long next time for another fill. Had some upper resp issues going on, so I had to reschedule my fill appts TWICE! Ugh!

I'm getting fuller faster though, even with liquids. Mushies start today, so that's exciting. Wish me luck and some will power!

Karen,

I stalled for about a month and a half, however I was still losing inches. I have seen people call this "compacting" and it makes a lot of sense. I think your third fill is going to do it for you. Just hang in there and look for some Non scale Victories to keep your chin up!

  • 3 months later...

Well, I'm still on my third fill and am now down 84 pounds, and 10 sizes! I did the happy dance in the fitting room when I tried on a size 20 skirt.

3d fill - 2.0

4th fill - 2.5

Clarification - I have a 4.0cc band not a 9.75

I have lost 52 pounds to date!
