Dr C, should I do a full fill or a small one?



Recommended Posts

Hi all! My weight loss has slowed down a lot. I was banded on Feb 28 and lost 40 lbs. Now I have my first fill scheduled for Sept 11 and I have restriction even with no fill. Do I just get a small fill? I have a VG band and my doc does 3 cc's for a first. I dont want to have problems but I also want to get back to loosing these last 50lbs. I admit I can eat more on some days and other days I dont each much at all.

A 3cc fill is a pretty small one in my book for a VG. I usually do 4cc.
