PatriciaO 7 Posted May 26, 2013 I had my surgery 9/2012 and I haven't lost weight until now!! I knew it would take longer because I picked realize band and it holds 14cc. Im at 10.5cc. I get full with a few bites and don't feel like snacking!! Now it's up to me to not stretch it and try to keep the restriction!!! Reason I picked realize band is because its not to tight around the stomach. Thanks for reading!! 4 ladyjordan, 2muchfun, brianb and 1 other reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stept04 465 Posted May 26, 2013 Are all Realize bands 14cc? I get banded Tuesday and they use Realize bands. I was just wondering if that is what I should expect. ~~~Stephanie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
can_do 195 Posted May 27, 2013 I also have a 14cc band. I'm at 5.5cc of fill now and that put me in the green zone. My surgery was 2/7/2013 and I'm approaching a 40 pound loss. 3 MandySha, SueBee01 and ZHRVK reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
