wanabthin 0 Posted September 21, 2007 What was the difference in restriction and not restriction? In other words, I am at 5cc's and I know I am close because at 6cc's I was WAY too tight. I wondering if even .2, .5 cc's can make a big difference because I'm really not feeling it too much now. Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wheetsin 714 Posted September 21, 2007 I wondering if even .2, .5 cc's can make a big difference because I'm really not feeling it too much now. Thanks! Absolutely, if it's the RIGHT .5cc! At the start of the year I went from 2.5cc to 3cc. At 2.5 I was fairly wide open, but at 3cc I closed off completely and could not even get my own saliva to pass - had to go for an immediate unfill. I was taken down to 2, wide open. Back to 2.5, wide open. But I was afraid to go to 3. So I split the different and went to 2.75. I've stayed there ever since and think I'm as much at a sweet spot as I'll be able to get. So yeah, in my case a half a cc made the difference between open & emergency unfill. And .25cc made the difference between open & sweet spot. I know peopel personally who have gone from open to too tight in as little as 0.1cc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kacee 3 Posted September 22, 2007 Also, as you lose, that restriction is going to ease up as the fat pad diminishes around your stomach. I am EXACTLY at my sweet spot now, but I've also lost about 3-4 pounds since that fill and I don't anticipate it will last more than a month, since I am actively losing.
