Last Thursday, had a fill. Now I am at 6CC's in a 10CC band. Once I went off liquids, I started to notice quickly that I felt the food going down and causing what felt like a cramp, I guess. I slowed down, ate a few more bites and I was ok for about 5 hours. Usually I can eat a whole cup of food or a complete Smart One. Not that day. Maybe a few spoon fulls thats it. Now its 5 days out and I am able to eat more than a few bites, but they are lasting quite awhile which is good. I did realize that first day once back on regular foods though, no toast, apparently that is now an issue for me after this fill, but thats fine. I really should be staying away from bread anyway. So how long do you usually stay in what I guess is considered the green zone?
