I know I have just under 3 ccs in a 4 cc band. I was at 3cc's and I was too tight. I told him to take a tiny bit out and leave me just under 3ccs.

It's been perfect since Dec.

Hi y'all! I'm back! It's been over a month now (?) since my last fill. I feel good. I stayed on liquids for a few days and then after that went to solids. My restriction has been up and down. I think for a coupld of reasons: first off, swelling of the stoma from being filled. then when the swelling went down, I was able to eat more. Then I didn't chew well enough and irritated my stoma again (I think), so right now my restriction is 'great', or really tight. I had an issue with drinking liquids today and that makes me a bit uneasy. I think I'll stay on liquids for a few days till I heel. I've been losing more weight, that's for sure. Probably about 10-12 pounds in the last month. for the past couple of weeks, I almost feel like I am at my sweet spot. I like it. I can't eat as much as I want. I really like the feeling. I do not crave food anymore at all. I stay full for long periods of time... about five hours or so.

Sometimes I think I don't eat enough and have been thinking about keeping a food journal tomake sure I get enough calories. I think I am under 600 calories per day. That's not a lot.

Thanks! Dana
