shrty835 Posted September 10, 2008 Report Share Posted September 10, 2008 Me too, what size band and how much have they put in each fill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
julieburns Posted September 10, 2008 Report Share Posted September 10, 2008 I too have much more gas then ever before surgery. Some days it's worse than others. Some days a food will cause more and than another day the same food is ok. Very fickle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khaan Posted September 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2008 Me too, what size band and how much have they put in each fill. I CANT REMEMBER THE CORRECT AMOUNT EACH TIME, BUT TOTAL TO DATE IS 1.7CC, AFTER BEING BAND W/DR ORITZ HE ONLY PUT IN .3CC. I DONT FEEL I HAVE TO MUCH FILL AND IAM LOSING A LITTLE OVER 7 POUNDS A MONTH, BUT I WENT BACK EACH MONTH BECAUSE I WAS ABLE TO EAT MORE THAN A CUP OF FOOD AT A SITTING AND I DIDNT FEEL A RESTRICTION. PLUS I DONT HAVE ANYBODY AROUND ME TO TALK ABOUT THIS, OTHER THAN TO READ WHAT ALL YOU GUYS DISCUSSION. I DONT THINK I WILL BE GETTING ANYMORE FILL FOR AWHILE. MY BAND SIZE IS 4CC.
