Green Zone Description

[hsigari921 10]

I know what the "green zone" is, but can you guys share your personal experiences of what it is and how it feels. I just received my 3rd fill and I sort of feel full (but not really) so I wanted to know if thats it. Or is it a lot more restricted than that. Like 2 bites and you're full. I don't quite feel that way. I can eat half a sandwich and a small salad and feel full. Is that still much for people who are in the green zone?

I'm basically asking what people's personal experiences of being in the green zone are.

What you are eating sounds great. If you could only eat 2 bites then you would not be able to meet your daily nutritional requirements and you would also probably get hungry again fairly quickly.You will never feel full the way you did before your band.You should be able to eat a wide variety of healthy foods.

For me I just ate less than before and didn't get hungry as quickly.I had to chew more and make sure I didn't eat too quickly but that was it.I could eat most foods although some gave me trouble. And I was losing weight without a heck of a lot of effort.

I can eat half salad and half sandwich and feel full .... BUT I'm hungry 2 hrs later. I've only had 1 fill and believe I need a few more to reach the green zone. Ive been told you shouldnt be hungry that soon, and the green zone allows you to feel full for 4 hrs between meals without the need to snack.< /p>
