I am having my BoB done tommorrow. As I read the Lap band forum over the last few weeks I see that Banders tend to have less restriction as they heal until their first fill. Do any BoBers who had it done have that same expirience or because we have had the bypass have any of you had some restriction right away? Also how many CC's were your bands? How many fills till you felt restricted?

Anxious for tommorrow! Thanks for any help!

I seem to have good restriction and can only eat a couple bites at a time. I was going to get a fill but postponed it because I can't eat much now. I think because our stomachs are smaller his makes a difference. Who knows, everyone is different.

Hi, Just curious, when did you have your BOB? Was it over a bypass? I'm thinking of having it done. Gained 40 pounds since bypass in 2005...so down, need to get a revision. Congrats on having yours done : )

I had it June 25. I have the bob and am down 20lbs and it's such a relief for the scale to be inching down. Check out my older posts and the threads as sever a of us have had it.
