  1. I had my surgery 1 year ago. I have lost 100 pounds and still have 100 pounds to go. I still struggle with your same problem. If I eat slowly I can eat a full plate I have never felt satisfied with 1 or less cup of food. I can drink normally. I am almost to the limit of my filling (I am at 9.5cc of a 10cc band) and still not in the green zone) so far the restriction has been always on my mind (meaning I stop myself even if I'm still hungry) and making good choice regarding food and working my ass off at the gym. For me, personally, the band has had a small role in the weight loss, so it has been frustrating. It is just one more tool. I do not regret having the surgery (or spending 10k out of my own pocket), but I should have prepare myself better for all the struggles. I have not lost any weight in almost 2 months so it worries me that the band is no longer "working" (though everything was ok on my last check up a couple of days ago). With that being said, I will not stop this process that I've started, even if it takes me twice as I expected and have to do it all on will power (and the grace of God). Just my two cents.
