BethinSeattle 0 Posted October 22, 2006 New to LPT, not new to the band. I was banded about 20 months ago after researching the band for over 2 years. I made it to my pre-plastics goal in 17.5 months. I lost 154 lbs during that time. I have the larger Inamed VG band, currently at 5ccs. My sweet spots have varied from 5ccs to 9ccs over the time I've been banded. I've been too tight three times (each at a lesser volume than the time before). I had an issue with esophageal dialation at 15 months that was resolved by an unfill for 3 weeks. Beth Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
