Question:
How many cc's does anyone have in there band to get restriction, I have the realize

10 cc band since 12-24-09,I've had 2 fills already,now on the 48hrs liquid diet post fills. I've lost to date 25 lbs since surgery and total of 37lbs from proeop diet. When will I know I have enough restriction, So far I have 5cc's,and what is everyone else eating and size portions. I'm a little confused on how much to eat and what, I can eat almost anything. I've been using sugar free candy for a little something sweet, is that ok. Thanks for any response.    — T R. (posted on February 9, 2010)

I had Realize band on 8/20/2009 and since then I have had 3 fills 4cc-2cc-1cc and I can eat anything and everything. I am a little bit disappointed as I feel like if I was good at dieting on a long range base I wouldn't have had to get the band. I too wonder when you get enough restriction. My doctor is so busy you only get an appointment every 2+ months. I have lost a total of 43# but most of it was in the first 2 months, only 5 pounds in the last 3 months. Please others help!
