HOw much does it cost to reposition the Band

Do you have good FILL.. are you eating correctly....That seems like a slow weight loss having the band.. Normal wt loss is 5 to 8 pds a month..

IS think she might want to get the flavor and by spitting the food out, she did just that... I think she had good control.. May not be my idea of what to do, but Hey what eve works Diane

I paid 8000 for this tool. Let my hands and mind make the correct sound judgement when I make food choices today and in the future I love myself and I will work thru this....

Unfills...how many have you had and why?
ras141414 replied to SusanP's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I had unfill due to me reaching my goal weight.. But now its only been 2 wks and I am thinking I want to go another 15 pds.. SO in 2 wks I go back to TJ and get a FILL. I have a 5cc band, and I have 1.6 cc in now I hope to go back up to 2.4 cc.. that is a good fill for me banded 3/29/08 Dr.Corvala TJ 178/133.6/115 62" -
