    Ditto for me with the Bariatric Advantage! I am 4 weeks out and they are the only thing that has made me sick (about 1 minute later everytime). I finally just bought some Fintstones and had no issues. Thank goodness I didn't stock up on them!

    I agree! I'm about 6 weeks out now and down 40lbs. Man what a difference! I hope my poor husband survives lol! Before I just wanted to keep the cover to my chin and his hands above my head. Not much fun for either of us.

    I'd like to hear back from OP...
    I hate feeling full! HATE it! Personally I think that your desire to feel full, rather than "not hungry" or disinterested in food may be a psychological issue... Do you? Have a big think about why you got surgery and butterthebean/other posters have provided some good advice about why physically you may not be full...
    Oh and anyone care to talk in grams! Can't picture 4-8 oz

    Hey Mike. As has been said, you will not feel the restriction's full effect until you start on full solid foods. Secondly, you don't want to feel full ever again. Eat till you're no longer hungry, not till you're full. If you do that you will be successful.

    thats why i love kaiser. i started their program in feb i think. they make you attend 3 months of classes you can not get the surgery until you complete the class. it was so informative. i am getting sleeved sept 12 from feb to now a long process but i apprieciate it.

    Drinking before the meal starts really shouldn't hurt. It's waiting to drink AFTER that is important. The liquids really do just go right through.

    I was told the exact opposite from Weight wise bariatic center & my Surgeon . I was told to drink drink drink up until the first bite and then do not drink for another hour after my meal. If ur choice of food for a meal is first 2/3 Protein and then if you still have room do a bote of vegetable there shouldn't be a problem. That's what I learned in my Post op Dietician class

    WOW!! You ate 8oz's of tuna...the whole thing . Straight? As a salad?
    I do not believe being Sleeved is a wait of time but I think you should give yourself time.
    I agree with Nate maybe a scale is what is needed here. Weigh each item, eat slowly and CHEW, CHEW, CHEW before swallowing. That may help you feel fuller... longer.
    Give it time. You could be rushing results way too soon.

    tuna is usually a 6 oz. can. Squeeze out the Water and you have 3 oz., which is just about right.
