Hi everyone. I asked my doctor about fills and how much is a good amount and I told him about how some people get more than others and he told me that the amount of fill has a lot to do with the type and size of your personal band. Some peoples bands are larger in diameter and need more to fill. Brands other than inamed run differently in size as will. I have a 10cc inamed band and I have just under 2cc's filled and I am really tight.

The radiologist told me that my opening was only about 1 mm big. I was very tight! Barium is very thick and that was just 1 little drink, more than a sip.

WOW Kelly- your tight & you swallowed-Every Guys fantasy. I apologize for those faint at heart! But I couldn't resist! LOL LOLOl LOL

ive got both of mine that i had done at different fills and its like a work in progress watching the change of tightness in the band as the barium goes through.

must admit though i never thought they would scan in being xrays.

Thanks for sharing

Pretty cool pics. It is very interesting to see the barium go through. Great diagnostic tool.

Wow I'm just seeing this post for the first time.

I just posted my barium swallow pics a few days ago thinking It's good to show newbies what the band looks like inside, and you have.

You look about as tight as I feel. Nice pics!

Thanks for sharing Kelly. You have less of a fill than me but your band seems a lot tighter. How much can you eat? Do you find your band tighter in the morning?

I got 1.5 last week and the band is very tight in the morning. All I can do is a cup of coffee for a few hours.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
