Tamjpjb 1 Posted July 4, 2008 Guess I didn't think about it like that....you're right. I should be happy that I've been able to lose weight with such little restriction. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trapped inside 0 Posted July 5, 2008 I just had my 5th fill and I feel like I'm finally in the game. Sometimes I am full after just 3-4 bites and when I'm really hungry (aka just wanna eat) I can eat maximum 1 cup but usually cannot finish a single serving type item. If I keep busy, I forget to mosh all night long like I use to. Hang in there! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hvnagdtme 0 Posted July 11, 2008 I've had a total of 6 fills (and 2 slight unfills) and am at 5.9 cc. I really like my level of restriction that I have right now - I was at 6.0 cc for 2 months and finally decided that it was just too much. I now can eat food without worrying about it coming back up, but I still have good restriction that makes me feel full quickly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi, hvnagdtme ON 04/21/08 my band was filled with 6cc (one slight unfill to check for leaks). For the first few months, I feel good restriction, not asmuch now. But I'm staying put for now,I'm still stuck at 220lbs (from 260lbs) an not going anywhere. Bug57 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BUG57 0 Posted July 12, 2008 Am eating much less now. Definitely not just one cup of anything! This is my fourth fill (6cctotal). I know I haven't found the r/spot yet, but am staying put. The minute I feel no restriction I'm running to get a fill. Bug57 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BUG57 0 Posted July 12, 2008 i have a 10cc band and i was banded on oct. 22nd, 2007. my last fill was on march 25th and i have my band filled to 9.4cc's i do have restriction but i have been eating a lot more than what i am supposed to and i have been cheating which is stupid of me. i just don't really have support like i used to have anymore and its all in my head with the hunger. i was doing great till the end of march hit, i lost some1 that was very close to me, my sis in law, my ( my bro's wife) and she had gotten gastric bypass in nov. 2007 and they really dont know why she passed away. we had an autopsy done on her but all they found was that her intestines were twisted and they said that i could have been from getting her tubes tied or from the gastric bypass. we were dieting together and i had all that support from her but like my sis and my bro all they do is make fun of me cuz i have a band around my stomach and it just puts me down. but i have to get back on track. Karen85 My home town is nyc (da bronx) But I live spring hill florida now. I also have a 10cc band. Four fill with a total 6cc in the band. I'll like to know how're you doing an how things coming along Bug57 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
