How many cc's do you have? How many fills so far?

Hey Ladies,
I hope you all are doing well! I had my first fill this Tuesday. It was 2 CC' s. I still don't have much restriction. I am at 191/Size 14. My loss could have been greater, but my sweet tooth is a MONSTER! The fill was like a big pinch. I return in February for my 6 mth post-op and 2nd fill.

I received my 2nd fill last Tuesday 1.2ml, still not feeling any real restriction. The Dr. told me to come back in 8 weeks. Well, I'm taking matters in my own hands now and have scheduled my next appt for 4 weeks. I think that 8wks is a long time to wait. The LAP-BAND®®® website says fills should be done every 4-6 wks - needless to say, I'll point this out to the Dr. when I return should he decide to give me any grief. I have a total of 6.2ml in a 14ml band and think that perhaps one more tiny fill may get me to the sweet spot.

Crossing my fingers...

I'm also kinda down and out these days as I've seemed to reach a plateau - I've been averaging 198-199 for the past 3-weeks. Ready to scream. Sorry for venting.

1st fill 9/15 = 5ml 2nd fill 11/10 = 1.2ml total is 6.2ml

I just received my third fill yesterday of .6cc's that puts me at 5.6cc's (I made a mistake earlier and said I was at 5.5 but I was at 5cc's).

I was feeling some restriction before but today I definitely feel it! I am on liquids and hope that I will be able to eat some in the next day or so.

I lost 7lbs in the past month without really trying. My mom had surgery and I was taking care of her (and making dinners), I have been working a lot and not exercising, so.. all considering I feel VERY successful for this past month.

I am starting with a personal trainer on December 1st, which I know will be good for me. That should kickstart me into a good workout routine.

I am so happy I had the surgery.. everyone here seems to be doing so well, congrats to us all!!
