Getting restriction with 14cc band



Recommended Posts

I think I have a large 14cc band (my doctor doesn't remember) Great doc huh. Anyways, does anyone have this size band and at what point were they restricted. I have 6cc and feel no restriction yet.

I too found out at my 2 week post op (last Friday), I have a 14cc band too. I was told some Fluid was put in during surgery, which I could feel first week, but they dont know how much. When I go for my fill on the 31st, they will remove all Fluid, and replace so they know how much I will actually have. They said they will do this each time.

How much was your first fill? The full 6 cc?

I also have a 14 cc band. I had my first fill yesterday of 3cc and so far I do not see a difference.

Hello, I also have a 14cc lapband AP large....I had my first fill on 7/14 and I got a total of 3.5cc's...It was fine that day and maybe a day or two after, I felt like I did just after surgery....but now I feel like I can eat more (not as much as before surgery) but more than I would like too.....I do have to learn to recognize when the band tells me to stop eating....I notice I get an irritating feeling in my chest area if I eat too much. I'm hoping that another fill or two will get me to my "sweet spot!".....

1st fill 7/14 3.5ccs

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      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...

        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.
