Guest guest Posted January 10, 2009 Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 Everyone's fill need is different. but 4.75 is still not a lot in thisd larger band. In a few days, after she is back on regular foods again, have her test the fill with a good band meal - 3-4 oz of solid protwein, about 1/3 eaten at the beginning before other foods, then about 1/2 cup of veggies - 1-1.5 cups total. she should be able to eat this comfortably in 20-30 minutes max, and it should keep her satisfied for 3-4 hrs. After all fills, we should review the band food choice needs and eating techniques. The band will only restrict a good band meal, so be sure she is choosing good band foods. Let us know how she does. her doc or nutritionist should be going over all this too, of course. Sandy r > > > I went out to Columbus with my aunt yesterday for her third fill.
