I have an appointment on the 6th.. they put 4cc in the first visit. I am feeling pretty good. I don't have trouble with any foods and never feel really "full" but I feel great and have been losing regularly. Are you all planning on getting the second fill? I was thinking of waiting since the weight is coming off..

I had my surgery Aug. 19, and just this last Friday 9/24 had my first fill, 1.6cc is what I had put in, and that was enough to notice a difference, so far I'm down 23lbs.

I haven't even had my first yet. I'm jealous. My first fill is Oct. 3rd.

I'm hopefully getting my first fill Oct 19th. My surgeon won't do fills until 8 weeks post op. I haven't lost in over a week and also feel I can eat anything.

I just recieved my first fill today and my surgeon put in 2cc's. My surgery was 8/11/11. He also advised that if I feel that I need another fill call the office in a month and schedule an appointment. I see now that my surgeon is a slow boogey type of guy.

Have had 2 fills and a 3rd is scheduled for 10/19. My surgery was 8/4. I definately noticed the difference after the 2nd fill. I have a 10cc band and currently have 4 cc's in fills (2 each fill). Doctor is pleased as I have now lost 40 pounds.

My first fill will be in a bit over a week. I'm maintaining a loss of 35 lbs. but not losing. I can eat nothing right now, but I've managed to keep with the rules pretty well.

Surgery was 8/12--14cc band with 5cc. 1st fill was 9/12, 3cc (total of 8cc). 2nd fill 9/28 of 2cc (total of 10cc) I still do not feel any restriction. Hopefully, the third time will be a charm...

What is the liquid capacity a band can hold?? 10cc's? I now have 3 cc's and I go back in 4 weeks. If I am losing weight I dont know if my doctor will give me a fill. He thinks all is good if the weight is coming off!

It depends there are many volumes, I know mine is a 11 cc band

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      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.
