There is a definite difference in the feeling of "full" pre and post band.

After you are banded, your stomach doesn't get full from "over"-eating, your esophogus does! You literally get full up to "here" <motions toward base of throat>!

If you eat too fast or don't chew well you will get pain in the stoma area.

It is literally impossible to eat until you are "full" in the pre-band sense.
