I'd like to hear from the October bandsters (or otherwise) who have a 10 cc band about how you are doing. I was banded in October with a 10cc band and just had my 3rd fill. I finally feel like I have some decent restriction and have gotten some of my hope back. I have a total of 5 cc fill. How is every body else doing?

I just had my 5th fill and I feel like I'm finally in the game. Sometimes I am full after just 3-4 bites and when I'm really hungry (aka just wanna eat) I can eat maximum 1 cup but usually cannot finish a single serving type item. If I keep busy, I forget to mosh all night long like I use to. Hang in there!

I have a band of 10CC and am filled up to 6cc and have had 6 fills.

I lost 41 lbs. since 11-5-07

I've had a total of 6 fills (and 2 slight unfills) and am at 5.9 cc. I really like my level of restriction that I have right now - I was at 6.0 cc for 2 months and finally decided that it was just too much. I now can eat food without worrying about it coming back up, but I still have good restriction that makes me feel full quickly.

Hi, hvnagdtme

ON 04/21/08 my band was filled with 6cc (one slight unfill to check for

leaks). For the first few months, I feel good restriction, not asmuch now. But I'm staying put for now,I'm still stuck at 220lbs (from 260lbs) an not going anywhere. Bug57

Hi tami

How are you doing?

Am eating much less now. Definitely not just one cup of anything!

This is my fourth fill (6cctotal). I know I haven't found the r/spot

yet, but am staying put. The minute I feel no restriction I'm running

to get a fill. Bug57

i have a 10cc band and i was banded on oct. 22nd, 2007. my last fill was on march 25th and i have my band filled to 9.4cc's i do have restriction but i have been eating a lot more than what i am supposed to and i have been cheating which is stupid of me. i just don't really have support like i used to have anymore and its all in my head with the hunger. i was doing great till the end of march hit, i lost some1 that was very close to me, my sis in law, my ( my bro's wife) and she had gotten gastric bypass in nov. 2007 and they really dont know why she passed away. we had an autopsy done on her but all they found was that her intestines were twisted and they said that i could have been from getting her tubes tied or from the gastric bypass. we were dieting together and i had all that support from her but like my sis and my bro all they do is make fun of me cuz i have a band around my stomach and it just puts me down. but i have to get back on track.

Things are going well, Bugs57- Thanks for asking. I feel good. This morning I was able to squeeze into a size 12 jeans and I am super excited! I haven't been in a 12 in about 15 years! Yea for me! My weight loss is slow, but I see the inches coming down.

Hi everyone, I had my 5th fill in June and it put me at 7.2 then something got stuck and the doctor had to take some out..I am currently at 6.0 ccs..I go this Tuesday for a fill...Most of my good restriction is gone..I have not made the smartest food choices over the past couple of months...ect..so anyway I hope I get back up to 7.0 at least with a good restriction and back on track..I was banded on Oct 2007 and lost about 68 to 70 pds so far...as of today...How is everyone else doing?

Hellooooo, vcompton

I'm doing good with 7cc...you know we all get off track ones in a while,,,,

but you have lost 70pds and thats great. So come Tues get the fill and

back on coarse...best of luck BUG57

Hello vcompton & bugs,

i have a 10cc band and i am at 3cc's now, i have been at 3 cc's now for 18wks and i am sheduled for a fill next wed. I have been of track as well for about a month, i have been eating some things that i shouldn't but i relize that i am eating more at a setting than i should be. When i first got my last fill i could stay below the 1100 calorie mark even if i was a little bad, like having a few to many tortilla chips with those refried beens. Because the amount i was eating was less, but now if i stray at all it seems like i am over my calorie intake because it is taking more to fill me up. I thought i was at my sweet spot but i guess that either my stomach has shrunk in the band or i was'nt there? Does this make any sense to yous?
