Pondering Fills

[Mystalia 0]

Okay, here is a question. Why is it some people can get filled to a certain restriction and do fine, and another person gets filled to that same restriction and can throw their boots up?? Is it the type of band, their current weight, etc.

I have read where some people are not alot different than I am (not comparing but looking at others success) but are really banded tight and some others are barely banded. Just my brain fart for the day.

Looking foward to hearing everyone's thoughts.

Well, I guess if you could compare organs and metabolisms and find that yours is the same as others, your question would makes sense. Some people may weigh as much as you and have the same situations, but who knows they may have more or less fat around their stomach. Not in reference to the external fat, but the actual internal fat pad that is on your stomach itself. If someone else has more of a fat pad, they might not need as much of a fill because the small fill creating pressure on the fat pad would equal the same amount of pressure on someone with more fill and less fat pad. Am I making sense. What I am trying to say is visible fat is not the only fat we have. You also have fat internally. That is the main reason for the pre op diet. To shrink your liver if it is fatty. I hope this helps. Wendell and Wasabubblebut could probably explain it alot better than me. Sorry!

Because the band has a mind of it's own.
