10cc banders

I have a 10cc band and I believe so far I been filled to 7cc. My question is anyone out there filled more than 7cc. I been pushing off another fill for over 2 years now and now am gaining weight. I have always been hungry even after eating and I eat more then I should. I normally just stop myself and stay hungry. I do have stuck issues but I know it cause I didnt chew right. Am afraid another fill will be to much since my band is only 10cc and I have 7cc already. I need help and get back on track and lose this weight. Thanks

I, too, have a 10cc band. I don't know how much I have in it. I do know the first few fills were full cc's, but the last two were "tenths" of a cc. I asked my doc if any people ever got all 10 cc's filled. Her response as she laughed was, "No." Now, u dont know if that's true of every single lapbander, but it seemed to be the case with my doctor. So, I guess you still have plenty of room in there. Maybe they could just "tweak" it a little. Best Wishes!

  • I have a realize band and it supposedly holds 11cc but I'm at somewhere around 12cc because my doctor said they can all hold more than they say they can hold. We're not sure exactly how much is in the band because when she tries to take all of the Fluid out she said it's impossible because some is always left in the tubing so I could be between 11 and 12cc. She said she has filled others to the max also because patient didn't feel any restriction. I had .25 taken out in October and haven't lost any weight in 4 months eventhough I go to a very rigorous bootcamp 4-5 days a week and eat my small meals, prob 3 is all I can manage. I'm going to doc tomorrow to see if I need more out because I still get a lot of reflux and sometimes food gets stuck. The band is a tricky thing. You should prob get a small fill if you are still hungry after meals.

I've had 5 fills and now have 8.2 in my 10cc band. I haven't had any stuck episodes, but I'm pretty sure I'm right at the green zone.

I've got an 11 cc band and i'm at 8 cc's as of yesterday - I am feeling very tight and i'm eating itty bitty bites and my chest and stomach are making serious noises - what an adjustment - but it's doing it's magic.
