I think I am close......what do you think?

[outside*looking*in 0]

So I have 7cc in my band and I think I am getting near the restriction but not there yet. I definitely can't eat what I could before (for example - before I could eat a whole grilled chicken sandwich with a most steak fries and now I can only eat 1/2 the sandwich and like 3 fries) (just an example I have had that twice since banded. I eat pretty well!)

Also, somethings new that I have noticed.

1. If I eat a meat Protein and then something juicy, like a fruit, it is harder to go down. Or take a sip of a drink is more of a problem.

2. I gurgle, like a drain unclogging, about a half hour after I eat??

Problems, I forget to drink Water sometimes and mistake my thirst for hunger! I have to remember to drink more!

Restriction is when you can eat about 1/2 to 1 cup of food at every meal and are able to go 4-5 hours between meals without being hungry.
