2 hotdogs at one time
Hey, I havent actually eaten 2 hotdogs but I have been able to eat a hefty amt. Definitely more than 1 cup. I have 6 cc's in my band as of now and still can eat like I have never had surgery. I had restriction for about 3 days and then it disappeared. I did do the 5 day pouch test and it seemed to get me back on track so maybe search that and try to give that a try. Just be patient and keep up the good work! 41 lbs is awesome! I hope this helps.

I don't eat the amount that I used to - but can eat more than I want to. Please tell me
what the 5 day pouch test is? Or where I can learn about it. I am very curious.
I am at 33 pounds weight loss and had my first fill of 3 cc's last week. I feel like my restriction
is waning. Thanks.
