At what CC do you feel full?



Recommended Posts

I know it varies for everyone, but I was wondering at what CC do you feel full on a half a cup of food?

I went for my fourth fill yesterday and my doc looks at me weird when I say I am not full after a 1/2 cup.

Right now my band is at 2.5 CC's.

I do not follow the 1/2 a cup of food theory..never have and never will..

It has not affected me in any way

But my band is at 2.5 cc's and this is a good level for me

i have 3.0 cc and have never been restricted to where a 1/2 cup was it for me.

well when i was to had to get an unfill i was super tight but it only lasted a few days cause i went straight to the dr! and that wasnt something i was trying for.

when i have what i consider perfect restriction for me, i eat about 3/4 cup to a cup of food in a sitting. at 3.0 i am not quite there...

I noticed that when I was drinking my Protein Drink this morning it took me A LOT longer to drink the whole thing. I know the band is tighter in the morning so other than that until I eat solid food I don't know if 2.5 will be good for me!

I am currently at 3cc's and still have only a little restriction. Going for my 4th fill tomorrow!!! My dr looks at me weird, too! I don't think he believes my when I tell him how little restriction I have.

I have 1.1cc's and I usually try the visual thing depending on what I am eating.

1/2 cup to 1 cup is what I shoot for but you know how that goes. I still have good restriction for now anyway. I too am alot tighter in the mornings up till mid morning I usually concentrate on my Protein or Water & liquids.< /p>

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.
