Hi everyone. I am new to this site. My name is Svetlana, I am 32 years old. I was banded on 08/26/09 and since then I am only down 30 lbs. I have a Realize band that holds 10cc. I currently have 5.5 cc and I barely feel any restriction. I have noticed that I can't eat all that I did before.....the problem is I NEVER FEEL FULL. I have been "watching" this site for a looong time and I have read sooo many posts where people talk about eating 3/4 cup of veggies and feeling like they ate too much etc. and I have NEVER felt anything like that. If you have ANY ideas as to what may be the reason for this PLEASE offer up any ideas or advice. Any and all info is appreciated.
