Hunger between meals
o was advised to eat 3meals withtwo snacksin between..i think it keeps our metabolism cooking along and gives body the energy out needs. it's difficult to fit the liquid with the half hour break on either side.

Sleeve holds too much food
i sleeved on 1/21/13 as well. i can eat 1/2 cup of certain foods.....but i need to leave about bites on my plate when it's pureed c veg chili or refried beans....it becomes tight my chest.soup or yogurt ican eat much more. i think they are ..once you move solid food you will feel feel and stay that way longer.
