Will I ever feel full?



Recommended Posts

Hi! I am new here. I was banded on 1/27/06. I had my first fill on 3/8/06. I have a 10cc band with 4cc fill. I have not had any problems to date but I still takes a lot for me to fill full. I have scheduled another fill for 4/4/06. I know everyone is different but can anyone with a 10cc band tell me about their expericence? I wondering if I will ever fill full. I started at 256 and I'm down to 238. It is a struggle because I get so hungry from one meal to the next and I do eat Protein.< /p>

Thanks for your help and suggestions.

I suggest you keep up with the Water and water type drinks, my dr. wants me to drink a gallon a day. Also try the pork rinds.:hungry:

Most people don't experience much restriction with their first fill. My hubby has the larger band like you do and he is in the same boat. He needs another fill, but he is getting ready to leave for India for 3 weeks and wants to wait until he gets back.

Best of luck to ya!

I also have a 10 cc band and have had 2 fills now (banded 1/9/06) I am also in the same boat. I have a appt. scheduled for th 30th. So far I've just heard it's harder to hit the sweet spot with the bigger bands?

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
