I heard 8cc is a good number on a 14cc band, can't wait for the next fill which will put me at 8cc - 8.5cc depending on what the doc decides to put in. I am back to the starving feelings and I hate it.

That's great! I had my 3rd fill this previous Wednesday. I have 6.5 cc in a 14cc band. I feel absolutely no restriction at all. Looking forward to my next fill on May 8th, hoping that one will do the trick.

Sorry it took so long to reply, I was on a mini vacation. Yes 8.4cc is VERRRRRRRRYYYYYY restricting. I have to drink slow. Before now, I use to be able to drink at least 4-5 16.9 oz bottles of Water a day. Now Im down to 3 bottles because of how slow i drink . The water will quickly fill you up if youre not paying attention. But YES you must chew very very well. I learned in the beginning when I was chewing some pineapples and i had to hold my arms up for at least 15 minutes before it started to slide down. WHILE JUMPING. LOL but im a pro now.
