I am 8 months post op and have only 1cc in my band and am happy with it. I also had plication too though so I don't know if that's why I don't need much fill.

I also have a 14cc band and I'm at about 9ccs (I think) I feel like I'm getting close to the green zone! I haven't had restriction at all since about a month after surgery which was May 2 but I've lost 60lbs and maintained it for the most part. I've gained and lost a few pounds here and there. I'm hoping one more fill will put me in the green zone! My doctors told me with a larger band sometimes it's takes people longer to get to the green zone.

Thanks Sabrina. This makes me feel better. I go in for another fill on Wednesday; so here's hoping for restriction!

      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?
