Is this enough restriction? Shoul I feel fuller or less hungry?

I had my third fill on Monday, I have 7.5mls in a 10ml band. I am not quite sure if I have restriction or not. I definitely feel a difference, before I could eat 2 sandwiches and lots of juice and still snack about an hour later, now I feel I have had enough after one wrap and I feel quite satisfied. I don't feel full but I feel like I have had enough to eat. I definitely feel satisfied for longer, no snacking after half an hour or an hour, but I do feel a bit hungry around 2 or so hours after eating.

This is amazing for me, I am eating less and battling my bad habits (snacking cause i have a craving some chocolate or biscuits). I am just not sure if I have full restriction, i know I definitely have some restriction cause of this great change in the last few days. I wonder if I should have a little more fill in a few weeks time.

What is everyone elses experience of restriction? Is this what it feels like so its just a matter of me getting used to eating like this and finding the will power to not eat till the next meal? Or is it something else?

Thanks for the words of wisdom. I think this journey is as much about mentally getting over eating like a big person as it is recoginising when you have had enough. I'm an emotional eater, eat when I'm happy, eat when i'm sad, excited, up , down, whatever. Even with the band I am sure I can still eat during these times so thats something to work on.
