:mad: I have 3.6 CC's in my 4 cc band! I have restriction some of the time and other's not. I do very good in getting in all my liquids. I can eat around 6oz's at a meal.

My problem is I think I need an adjustment but then not sure. I am self pay on $100.00 of the fill. The insurance covers the rest. I don't want to have to go today then turn around and go back two days later. Really do not have the cash right now!

If I can eat 6ozs at a meal is that to much? I haven't been able to move due to spraining BOTH of my ankles over three weeks ago and still getting use to walking on them again. I hear so many differnet things on what size meal you should be able to eat. My dr says 6oz's isn't bad....

Suggestions!

I think you need to evaluate your recent weight loss and your hunger in between meals. ( if you are still in the weight losss phase). How long does a meal that is solid food keep you satisifed. Are you making sure to not drink for one hour after a meal?

How much did you lose since your last fill? Do you think you lost enough stomach fat that your band might have loosened?

6 oz of food depends on THE food. Six ounces of pizza is different than a meal that's 4 oz of meat and two oz of veggies.

Be honest with yourself and I think you'll have the answer to if you need a fill.

Ok so I went to the doctor. He said I had 3.8 CC's in my band. By his records. I asked him to pull it all out and see what's in there and let's go from there. He could only get 2.5CC's out. So he put in .5cc's. Right now he is saying I am at 4.1 in my 4 cc band. I actually had a 3 lb gain instead of lose. I told him about not having any restriction at all. I am just afraid that I do not have a leak. He wasn't to interested in listening to what I have to say. He was to busy trying to rush me out of the office.

Thanks for the reply!
