Nette 0 Posted March 4, 2008 I have 3.6cc in a 4cc band. I do have some restriction because if I don't chew well enough I do get stuck. BUT, when I'm eating and do chew slowly I can feel it going through within a few minutes. So is that how the band is supposed to work? I thought it was supposed to sit in the pouch for awhile so I'd feel fuller longer? At this rate I'm still eating almost as much as before. Do I need more of a fill? I'm a little afraid to get more of a fill and then not be able to get anything through. My last fill I went from 3cc to 3.6cc. I do notice a little difference but my Dr seemed to think it would almost be too aggressive of a fill. Oh.. and that was 2 weeks ago. HELP! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
K@t 38 Posted March 5, 2008 you can actually feel the food going from your small pouch to your stomach. I can usually feel it going down my throat to my stomach but I don't usually feel it going though the pouch. The best thing I can suggest is to talk to your doctor. Good Luck!

Nette 0 Posted March 5, 2008 I think so. I know sometimes if I don't chew enough it kind of hurts so I think it's going through from the pouch to the stomach. It's the same place that hurts when I get stuck. I just worry I don't have enough of a fill if I can feel the food going through. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
