Band not 10cc but 14cc



Recommended Posts

I am at a 9cc in what i thought was a 10cc band. I was banded Aug 2008. My PA thinks their may have been a mistake in the notes on my chart-- any of you experienced this?????

Hmmmm...might be time to demand a flouroscopy look. Could be that they charted you wrong, or it could be that they didn't click the band closed all the way. Either way is an inattention to detail that would make me irate!

I'm not trying to be pissy on this next question...I promise. I see that alot of people are very focused on how much they currently have in their band and how big of a band they have. Why? Restriction is highly individualized, so why does the size or volume matter? Just curious, really :)

I don't even know how big of a band I have. How do you know? But I do agree ... it is very much a personalized event.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
