I had surgery April 1st and definately don't eat as much as I use to pre-band...but could still eat over my 6oz. I had my first fill on May 7th (2cc) and I still don't feel that restriction. Granted I feel some...but not like I think I should. I am praying when I go see him on the 21st......I will have better restriction after my visit. I'm not eating fast food, cakes and cookies.....but after I eat my 6oz of whatever food I am eating at the time.....I am hungry 2 hours later!!
