Lap Band Vs Realize Band Restriction

I am on my third band.. The first slipped, second leaked. The third I had changed to the realize band. I am noticing alot more restriction than I remember with the lapband. Is that normal?? Its about a month after the third surgery and Im supposed to get my first fill this week.. am a bit nervous... Has anyone experiences anything like this.

I got a Realize band last month ... never had any other band so I cant give you a comparison but I have no fill as of yet and I can feel noticeable restriction. I eat about 60% to half what I ate at each meal pre-op.
