How many more fills until I feel the fullness again



Recommended Posts

I had my first fill about a month ago. I received 3 cc in a 10 cc band. Sorry, I don't know the technical name for the bank I have, but I apparently have the larger of the two 10cc bands, if that makes any sense to anyone.

When I first got the fill I was pretty satisfied with little food. Now, about 3 weeks later, I barely feel satisfied. I am astonished about what I can eat sometimes. Definitely not like it was preband, but more than a probably should. I have still lost some weight since last fill, maybe about 3-4 lbs.

I will get another 1cc at the next fill. Just wondering if there is anyone went thru something similar.

It typically takes several fills until you reach your sweet spot. One thing you should remember is when you have a fill your stomach sells which could lead to a greater amount of restriction. When the swelling goes down your restriction will become less. Just think of it this way at least you have the option of getting another fill and adjusting it to your needs. Keep your head up and good luck!

FYI: I had 9 fills before I felt any significant restriction. I thought I was failing since I wasn't losing any weight. But now I feel it and should be able to lose adequately. Good luck to all and welcome to lapband!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
