14 cc band, How many cc's do u have and have restriction?



Recommended Posts

I was banded 3/4/13

I have only had one fill at a total of 6 cc's so far.

Feel minimal restriction, I can feel the difference from before the fill, but am sure I could use more!!

How many cc's are you? How much restriction are you feeling?

Thanks Everyone!! :D

I have 9cc's in a 14cc band. I know I have some restriction but I don't believe I am in the green zone by any means. However my surgeon is reluctant to give me any more fills because I am losing. It helps a TON but I could still eat whatever I want and I don't have to eat slowly or take small bites. I do as practice for one day when I am in the green :)

Great info so far! Thank you so much, I just wanna get a good feel for what the average is! For those who havent hit that green zone yet, keep trying! I have an appointment for another fill on Wednesday, hope i can at least get 1 cc for a total of 7. At my last appointment they made it sound like any further fills would be pretty small, but im gonna have a talk with em!! :)

8 cc in a 14 cc band....6 months in and dont feel any help yet and have not lost much either :(. Dr doesnt want to give me anymore as she feels I should "be there"- my point being.."what happened to not comparing yourself to others"...Im NOT there yet according to what everyone says and dont feel she should be telling me I should be?!

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

    • buildabetteranna

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

        Am feeling this right now. My surgery date is 4/1. Sign the consent tomorrow. I feel like I overloaded myself with too much info, too many opinions. Got to the point where I was wondering if I should do this. Then I thought of my reasons for taking this step and that settled my nerves. Still get moments of doubt but am striving forward. Am just going to follow my book from the surgeon. Joined this because I was told by my dietician that I should do this for support
