Today, I went in for my fourth fill and they said that I have somewhere around 4cc's. This concerns me because I still have a good 50-60 pounds to go. Is this a reason for concern? How many cc's will a 4 cc actually hold? Anyone, with any knowledge on this?

Thanx!

I have heard that bands actually hold more cc's than they say....

I have the 4cc band as well and currently have 4.3cc's in. I was told it could hold 5 to 5.5cc's max. Anything above 4.3 for me is really tight. I was banded Jan 07 and have lost all of my excess weight (90 Lbs). So, right now just maintaining. I am sure you will be fine. Keep up the good work and good luck!

Wow, I'm shocked. My band also hold 4cc's and my doc told me no one ever gets 4cc's because it makes a person so tight that it's hard to swallow spit. I'm surprised you all's band are so tight. I am currently at 2.6cc and I know I could be tighter...I am almost at my sweet spot. The above info is good to know.

I have a 10cc band and I already have 5cc's in it and still have 120 pounds to go. LOL. So, I was also scared thinking, if I already have 5cc's, how much more will I need to reach goal ? what if I go over the 10cc's??? i believe he said that the 10cc will hold 12 cc.. but, I can't be 100% sure.I know he said it held way more than just the 10cc. I know you are talking about the 4cc band, but I think they all hold more than what they are sanctioned to hold.
