  1. got my 3rd fill today. Hopefully I will be able to feel a difference.

  2. How do you know that if you had any more fill volume you would be too tight? What sensation do you have when you should stop eating? It's different than when food gets stuck, right?

  3. You said that your fill MD tries to get you to your sweet spot ASAP? How many cc's do you have after your 2nd fill? I only have 6 and still don't feel much restriction. Going for #3 next Monday. I am just curious. Do you have an 11cc band?

  4. I have lost the exact same amount of weight as you (about 27 lbs) Not much after 2nd fill. I have 6 cc in my band and am going on the 31st for more. I want at least 8. Let me know how your fill trip goes. Weight loss has been much slower than I had hoped.

  5. Hi Kat,

    I am down about 25 pounds but have had my 2nd fill and am going for my 3rd on Monday. Everyone I talk to says that you don't really get much restriction until you have at least 8cc's in an 11cc band. Do Not despare! Email me at mhermanrn@yahoo.com and we can chat more. Hang in there! Margaret

  6. Does the weight loss happen quicker now?

  7. So what exactly does restriction feel like? It's different than getting stuck, right??

  8. Do you have restriction at 8cc's? I have 6 and don't feel much unless the food gets stuck.

  9. Hi Storm,

    I live in Long Beach. If you ever want to go down to TJ for a fill run, let me know.

  10. You look FANTASTIC!

  11. I was also afraid of having surgery outside the US until I researched the OCC. I am a nurse in Long Beach, CA and I can tell you that my experience at the OCC was better than any experience I have had in the US!

  12. Go for it! It is the best thing I have ever done!

  13. I wish you all the luck in the world! Everyone loses at their own pace so don't compare yourself to anyone but you! Hope you have an easy recovery!

  14. Hi Theresa,

    Are you still on for the 14th? We will be staying at the Lucerna. I hope we can get together.

  15. Hi Notsmallyet,

    I am having my surgery on Jan 14th at OCC. I wish you well~
