Fill #4 and we might be close

I had my 4th fill on Friday, 5cc's total and tonight during dinner, for the first time, I felt that full feeling, almost at the very back at my throat........time to stop eating and enjoy the feeling. For those of you vet's, please tell me that this might be a sign that I am closer to restriction..............thanks

Sounds good. Just take time to recognise and respond to your soft stop signals and you will be fine.

I got 4cc on my first fill, I could eat a house still.

I get another one this Thurs. I can't wait, I am hoping to feel that full feeling too.

That may be a signal but that is not what you should be looking for. And, it takes time(months) to be one with the band for most of us. You should simply feel like you aren't hungry any longer. Feeling full as you describe it could mean you ate too fast, too much or failed to chew properly. food backing up in your esophogus and pouch is not good.

But yes, it does sound like restriction. Just keep listening to your band and your body. Too many overfilled episodes can lead to a dialated esophogus or pouch.
