What if you band is full

Frank · January 21, 2005

I just had my second fill. I have 2.8cc and have good restriction now. My question is I have a 4cc band If I get up to 4cc in fill and still have weight to loss what happens. I was stocked to be at 2.8cc on my second fill. My wife just got her first fill and it was 1cc. She has alot of room to go and only has 30 pound or so to lose. I wondered if anyone has ever been filled to the max.

We have been working with our bands. We totally believe in Low Carb. We have come so far, but still want to reach goal. Time is on our side.

Frank, check out the Fills section of this board. There are a couple of threads going there that will be very helpful to you.

I haven't had a fill yet, so unfortunately can't add anything. But, I wanted to say great job to both of you! Keep you the good work!

Franks, Im having trouble understanding your signature. Please explain.

It looks like Dow has lost 137 pounds and Deb as lost 77.... is this correct? (Since Oct. 4th?)

We lost weight before the surgery on low carb. I have lost 46 and Deb 37 since Oct 4th.

I'm at 4cc now with a 4 cc band and still have room to eat also. I am going for a fill soon. U can put more in and more times than not you dont actually know exactly what went in. I believe my doc is taking it all out and replacing in order to be sure. I had 4 fills all but one with different Docs. Mistake on my part. I believe I have simply pushed my diet and stretched my little pouch out or I never was good restricted to begin with. We will see.

Take care.
