Lap band fills, do you ever wish they would put in more cc's at a time?

So I had my surgery December, 18th 2013. I have a 10 cc band and I have been into the doctor and have gotten 6 fills. I am currently only up to 3 cc in my band. now I guess that they are moving me to .33 fills which means ill have to go in 3 more times just to get up to 4 cc's in my band. I guess my point is that I am frustrated with how long I have been in the yellow zone. I was 387 at the beginning of my journey and now I am down to 332. I have lost weight and it has helped me not be as hungry. The worse thing I noticed is that I am hungry withen like an hour of me eating. What do you guys suggest I do to keep my mind off of being hungry all the time.

labwalker, speaking as someone that just got a fill on Tuesday and thinks she is to tight..it's miserable..all I can eat is yogurt and for some crazy reason my Protein bar. I'm hoping it's just that I'm not chewing enough or eating to fast...afraid to say "hey take some out" when all I want is to be in the zone and losing...how long should I give it till I call the office and ask for an unfill? I mean is it possible that my tummy is still irritated from the fill and that's why "real/healthy" food is sticking? HELP????

I think everyone trying to get to the green zone wishes doc's would do more fills... but once you experience being really stuck, you'll appreciate why they go forward with fills slowly rather than aggressively.
