When I 1st was banded I could only eat a small amount.....

When I was first banded I got full off a small amount, like half a sandwich. While I doremain full for a reasonable time I can eat as much as I could pre band (I dont, but I could). I have had 2 fills for a toal of 5cc in a 14in band.

Since I am staying full, what will further fills do for me? I really want to get back to the feeling I had early on where I was full quickly.

Will this happen?

My doctors office says your goal is to be able to go 5 hours with out eating. If you are full for a few hours and then get hungry it could be that you need another fill. I have 9.4 CC's and hope this last fill will bring me restriction.

My doctor says you should go 4 - 5 hours between meals. I have had 2 fills with a total of 3.5 ccs and can go about 4 - 5 hours depending on what i eat at the meal. But since I had my 2nd fill I am having problems eating. Some mornings I could eat Breakfast and then the next morning I can't. Also some days I eat very little lunch or dinner. Not sure what it means.
