Congrats on the 23 pounds!!!! That's awesome!!!!!

I seriously was full and laughing because I couldn't believe I couldn't eat the whole egg lol. It's defiantly a different feeling, that's for sure!!!

Oh yes! Me too! Because before the surgery, It was barely enough to eat 3 large scrambled eggs, 2-3 sausage patties or links and grits, sometimes even 2 packs of instant for my Breakfast, so yes, I do see what you mean more than you know. Lol!

congrats on the loss.

it's an interesting thing isn't it. I'm glad I can't eat much and have lost weight but sometimes it's dissapointing to be full after only a few bites. I made a slow cooker pulled pork for dinner tonight and it tasted so amazing that I was actually kind of sad that I could only eat three bites of it

I went out for lunch for the first time with friends this weekend. I thought it would be hard to see them ordering yummy food as I'm only just two weeks post surgery. I ordered Tomato bisque Soup. I thought I'd finish the soup, but after two tablespoons I was full. Such a strange feeling. I forced myself to go out as I don't want my social life to suffer just because I can't eat like everyone else. I'm so glad I did, I had a great time with my friends and didn't feel disappointed not eating the same as that. Good luck everyone, love seeing positive messages .

You are braver than I am. I'm 12 days out and have season tix to theater Wednesday night with friends. We always go to dinner before the show. I just can't imagine being in that situation quite yet. Not even sure where they are picking to go to dinner or if there is anything liquid in the menu I could have. I suppose any place with Soup I could have the chef blend it for me. Never had to ask for that before. I'm going to meet them at the theater. I'm glad you were able to enjoy your friends at dinner!

Yeah I am 16 days post op and tried purée this afternoon. I had some purée chicken breast with some siracchi for flavor. I managed about the equivalent of 2 table spoons of food and I was stuffed. In fact I felt full for about 5 hrs afterwards...

Haha same here! I did a chicken with a little guac. Ate 1 1/2 tbsp (maybe) so full after for hours. I never thought I would have to force food in!!

Same thing with me. I can't even drink anything for hours afterwards.

That's why today, I'm starting with my Protein shakes and Water.

And then later this evening if I get hungry I will attempt a meal. Because my nutritionist said it's more important to get fluids in than food at this point.

So that's what I'm going to concentrate on today and see how it goes.

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!
