abs6angels 36 Posted January 8, 2013 I got 1cc before Thanksgiving, and that was too tight, so got .5 taken out. Felt much better, now I'm hungry every two hours despite my best efforts. Was wondering if I should call the dr and see if less than 1/2cc is going to make a difference? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
brlgirl 112 Posted January 8, 2013 My past 2 fills have all been .2--yes that's right .2. The nurse said that I am too close to 7cc--which is the max my dr wants for his patients...so they are now filling .2--if I need a fill. The last visit I didn't get one at all.

abs6angels 36 Posted January 8, 2013 O really?!?!? Thank you for replying- I've been feeling really upset about this, thinking they can't possibly do less than .5cc! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2muchfun 8,927 Posted January 8, 2013 My 6th fill in June of 2012 took me to the green zone but I was getting stuck a lot. So, I went in and had .5 removed. I still get stuck occasionally but it does seem like I'm hungry far too often and I can eat too much and seldom feel satisfied. I'm going in for my 8th adjustment this Friday and I imagine it will be .5 or less. .25 would be fine with me. I don't mind sneaking up on this green zone again, only, I hope I'm smarter this time around? Looking back I believe the reason I was getting stuck so often and had .5 removed was because I wasn't eating properly. Oh, I ate the right foods, just not the right speed and bite amount. I think I've learned how to eat smaller, slower and chew more now. At least I hope I've learned this lesson. I do read a lot of my fellow forum members can eat less than a cup of food and feel satisfied and not eat for 4-5 hours. I need to be there. tmf Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Summerrain 520 Posted January 8, 2013 As I got closer to the greenzone my fills were either .2 or .3 every two to three weeks till I got to were I needed to be and without blowing right past into the redzone. 1 2muchfun reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DELETE THIS ACCOUNT! 12,703 Posted January 8, 2013 I've had as little as .1cc both added and removed. Both times it made a world of difference, too. 1 2muchfun reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
