I know that everybody is different, but how often (approximately) do you get filled. Like I said, I know everybody is different but it's good to know if your close to what everyone else is!

I have been going 1 time a month.

Once a month, I am on my 6th fill.

That sounds about right. I remember it took me 5 fills and 6 months to reach good restriction.

I've been going every two weeks with 1 cc's at each visit (first fill was 2 cc's) as I get closer to good restriction, we'll decide if I can go longer between fills and if we should lessen the amount of fill at each visit.

so far, I've had five fills and I'm at about 6 cc's in a 10cc band.

Last fill was yesterday, still trying to figure out if this one got me to my first level of restriction.

i go once a month-but have only had 3 fills-have good restriction thus far

I was scheduled for my second fill six weeks after my first.

I just came back from my 2nd Dr visit since surgery on Dec 20.

So far I have lost 29 pounds. He recommended waiting for 2 more months for a fill, since I am losing sucessfully. He will do a fill sooner, if my weight loss decreases or my hunger increases. Seemed resonable to me.:biggrin:

I had my first fill ~6 weeks after surgery, and my second 3 weeks after that. I'm scheduled for my third in another 3 weeks.

yep me too. once a month.

Every 2 - 4 wks & approx .5cc per fill. Just had #5 yesterday bringing me to 7.4cc in a 10cc band.

Had to wait 6 weeks for the 1st, then 4 weeks, then 4 weeks again. Now if I need another it will be 4 weeks. Our clinic wants to see us every 4 weeks regardless. I think that's an excellent idea.

I had my 1st fill 4 weeks after surgery on 2/13. Now I am going every 2 weeks until I hit my sweet spot.

I can go once every ten days if I need to but it is getting hard to get appointments at my doctors because they have had such an increase in bands. They are in the process of hiring someone else to do them, but in the meantime it takes about 3 weeks to get in for me.

I had my first fill of 2 cc 12 weeks after surgery. Not sure if I have hit my "Sweet Spot" not sure what that is. I do feel restrictions. I have not had good weight loss for the last month.

This is exactly my schedule as well. I had 1cc at surgery, 3ccs at the first fill, 2 ccs at the second fill, and 1cc at the third, leaving me currently at 7ccs in a 10cc-band.

I have had a fill once a month since op. Still have appointment for this month but don't think i will need a fill this time as i still have good restriction. My surgeon still wants to see me just to check weight loss and that all is well with the band
