14Cc Band Fill Questions???



Recommended Posts

Just wondering...and let me say I know every dr is different ....however

those of you who got the 14cc band....how much was your first fill....just curious.

I see alot of those who had the 10 cc band who had 4 cc put in during surgery or their first fill.

I am so excited to get my first fill to hopefully get a little restriction. It is very hard at this point but eating no

more than I am supposed to at this point. Not till Nov. 30th but that time will hopefully go fast.

TIA!

Truly every doctor is different and has a different approach as you know. Some doctors do a slight fill during surgery, some no fill at all. Others are aggressive about doing fills but some doctors do very little. I have a 10 cc band and had no fill during surgery and have had 3 fills post op (at 4.5 cc now). Also, note that many of us don't feel any restriction until after a few fills or so. You may not feel any or much of a difference after your first one.

It will come though.

      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.
