Are you losing weight? If so, then maybe it's not too much. Try counting the calories on that list and see where it leads. That would be a better measurement of whether or not it's too much food.

use myfitnesspal to log all those things and check your calories. it sounds like what i am eating and i have lost 57 lbs. if you don't feel full you might want to talk to your doctor, but it sounds like you are making healthy choices, so you should be losing weight. are you?

I never eat more than a cup of food per meal and I also count calories. This helps me to monitor my intake considerably as well as assures me I don't eat too big a portion.

Keep in mind with the band, you're not supposed to be eating until you're stuffed full just until you're no longer hungry. Here's a good link to better explain it: http://drsimpson.net/fills/Lap-band-eating/lap-band-not-restriction/lap-band-and-restriction.html
