Amount of fills



Recommended Posts

Fills are really something that depends on the person. Some people have lots tons of weight with no fill. Some people are all the way up almost to the max. It's all about working with your doctor to find out what works for you.

I'm at 1.2ccs personally. I'd gone up a little bit but was overfilled and miserable. So 1.2 works for me. I have a friend who still has none and she was banded after me and has lost more weight.

I am at 1.6 in a 4cc band. I was overfilled at 2.0 but just removing .4 was a major relief. It also depends on the size of the band, different bands hold different amounts of saline. ~Mandy

Flower, nothing personal, but your questions are always so vague. In what context are you asking for the "average" fill? Do you mean the first fill? Total fill? Tweak? In what size band?

In any event, the answer is there is no "average" fill. It all depends on what is right for the person at the time.

      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.
