I have 7.75cc's in my band. I'm going for a fill next week. Soooo close to my sweet spot. I'm 8 months post lapband. Seems like when I lose weight my band gets loose. Lost almost 60lbs so far.

I have no idea. Still don't know and it's 1.5 years later.

I don't actually know I know he gave me 1 cc last fill said it was the max to give. but I hadn't had a fill in 5 months. I think I only had about 1 cc in before so maybe 2 cc's.. I've only had 3 fills..

I'm at 7.5 cc's in a 10 cc band, but I agree with Dee, as you lose weight, you may require more fills as you lose weight and your anatomy changes. I'm happy with 7.5 for the time being though.

My doctor doesn't share the amount as it varies so much from person to person but I've had six fills -- pretty sure they are small ones. I think my surgeon is of the small frequent fills school of thought. And I'm feeling pretty good as far as appetite being dimmed. I still have to fight off desire to eat anyway, but that's getting better.

I have 5 cc, but everyone is different as you see the answers here are. Don't worry about others, you will just happen when you happen. Then what you have will make a difference to no one but you1 Good luck, Karen

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

      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! 😞
