When they band off a portion of your stomach, does anyone know the size of the top part of your stomach that the food will sit in for a few hours? :eek:

I'm told it's physically about the size of a half of your hand, but of course it can stretch a little to accommodate food. The capacity is intended to be about 1/2 to 3/4 of a cup, but as food moves through the bottom opening it's very common for people to be able to eat more than that before they have good restriction.

Is that what you meant?
