What is the difference with being in the green zone and having restriction? For the first time in 7 years since getting my band, I am not hungry after a fill. I have been told that is the green zone. What then does it mean to have restriction?

If you are in the green zone, you are where you need to be so don't be concerned with "restriction". I think "restriction" is a term that we toss around a lot in the forums but is not a helpful concept when it comes to using the band to lose weight.

When I go for a fill, the PA at the surgery center asks about what I've been eating, how much, and how soon do I get hungry after a meal, and checks how much I'm losing. I've never been asked by a medical professional how much restriction I feel.
