Just wondering how many cc's gave you restriction?

Hi Chillie, I hope your restriction lasts but usually with that little of a fill it may only last for a week or two before you'll be ready for another.

Best of everything,

I thought I might have been at my sweet spot at 7 cc but after a week or so only had a little restriction. My 4th fill brought me to 8.5 and I think I've finally got good restriction - time will tell as I just recently got this fill.

My doctor did say though that with this band most people get good restriction anywhere between 7 - 9 cc.

I have 6ccs in my band going for another fill (3rd) this week. I have no restrictions. I could really use it.

Well, the 9cc's I had in my band made it too tight. I lost 10 pounds in 9 days! Could not get chunky soup down without a fight! I went and got 1cc drained out and it is a huge difference. I still go slow, but am able to eat now. I never thought I would be one to get fluid taken out, I want restriction, but that was too much.

I got my first fill on 12/26.07 (2cc), second fill on 1/30/08 (2cc), had plenty restriction for three weeks. After three weeks that died, had 1cc put in today 2/25/08 for a total of 5cc. On liquids right now and feeling some restriction when I drink water, I hope this works.

I have had my band just over a year and I have just around 12cc. If I go over I am too tight. Geri

Wow, 12cc's seems like a lot, but what do I know? Haha

The 8 I have in there now seems to be pretty good, but I have my days!

i havent found my spot exactly yet and all my fills are 2 weeks apart so far....after my first fill of 4 ccs i had good restriction for a week, then nodda got the second fill of 1 cc and i felt like she took one out. no restriction what so ever. next came another 2 ccs fill for a total of 7 and im now noticing i cant eat no more than a cup and 1/2 during am hours but around 2 cups in the afternoon. going for 4th fill this tuesday and im only getting 1/2 cc so i hope this is the one

I had my 2nd fill 12 days ago, and I'm very happy with it. I now have 5 cc's in my band and so far it's feeling just fine. I almost have too much restriction in the morning, but it's fine later in the day. I can live with that as long as I keep loosing.

2.5cc's in a 4cc band and i'm perfect

hi i have a 14cc band had my first fill of 6cc and have felt some restriction but as i am finding i can eat a bit more now. going for my next fill 28th august so im hoping i will have a little more restriction will keep you posted.

i just got my second fill -- 3 more cc for a total of 6 cc in my ap large band. i can honestly say this is the first time i have felt restriction, but i notice it lessening since i was filled about 24 hours ago.

I was banded Oct. 14,2007, I currently have 6cc in my band and I am a little too tight. Since being banded I loss a total of 53 pounds. Right now food feels like the enemy. I have to make myself eat, but after a couple bites, I'm full.

I am at 11cc's in my 14cc band. I feel very little restiction. I can eat about anything without worry. I do chew well so that probably helps but the amount that I can eat and then be hungry again within a couple hours sucks. It is four weeks until my next fill. I am worried they will have to overfill mine before I have enough restriction, but I still have three cc's to go.

Hiya.

Have a 14cc band. First fill 6cc but very little restriction (banded 25th June 08). Returning 25th August for a top up! Hope it works!!
