I have noticed after eating quickly- I have not PBed (slimed)

Is that normal?

I also am able to consume 5-6oz. grilled chicken breast for dinner with 1/2 yam and some broccolli.

Am I eating too much?

I'm still at 3.5 cc's in a 9cc or 9.75 cc band (need to check)

I noticed I can eat more than I could the first few weeks of the last fill.

I am not gaining which is good, but "maintaining"

Before spending $100 to get floro to check my band, maybe someone can help because I am paranoid about if I stretched my band or whathaveyou.

I think that is more than you should be able to eat - I can drink a protein shake in the morning and that is all - I can eat about a cup or so of food for lunch and same for dinner - I do not snack during the day - before I got my last fill I was eating like you are - not gaining but losing slowly if at all. I was banded 3 months ago and am only down about 13 lbs. I told my doctor's PA that I wanted more restriction so I was not able to eat that much - even though I slimed last night trying to eat a piece of chicken and couldn't and can barely eat if we go out to dinner I would rather it be too tight than too loose. I don't want to be tighter than I am now and think I am probably at a good spot right now. If I was any looser than I am now I think I would over eat.

I was banded July 31st and have had 2 fills already. I go for my 3rd fill tomorrow. I have been able to eat most days like I was never banded. My hunger has been there although sometimes I've had good restriction but it doesn't last. Some people can't eat hardly at all. That hasn't been the case with me. I'm hoping after tomorrow that I will finally get control on my hunger and also on how much I can eat. I would say just hang in there. My Dr. told me after 3-4 fills I should be getting where I need to be. I am praying that is right as I didn't do this for nothing. If I had control of my eating I wouldn't have done this, but I don't. Good Luck for all of us...

My second fill put me at 5cc's.... I'm sure tomorrow it's going to be more. It looks like my Dr. is a little more aggressive than yours. I'm not sure why they wait so long to get restriction there, but they do. Maybe it just takes time for us to get used to it.
