The feeling full feeling is hard to describe but i listen to what my body tells me . What I have been told that when I start eating it should not be more than a cup which will include meat, veggies etc. You can stretch out the stoma which I believe is the bottom part that goes to your intestines. Also remember that your stomach is still healing!

Actually my daughter and sil pan fry it without grease just spray Pam and she does sprinkle a very small amt of flour on it so I want her to show me how! I am however gonna have hubby grill me some fish on grill! I do not like to cook but finding different ways to eat seafood could prove to be fun!
-
Hopingnomeds I am going to buy filleted flounder from a seafood market so hopefully no bones! Also later I can't wait to have me some shrimp boiled of course and crab! I think I also discovered that my pouch doesn't like refried beans! I just ate the middle out of a soft taco and it didn't make my stomach react the way beans did!

I wish I had known how bad this surgery was going to make me hormonally!

Hopefully Kathryn you will have a pain pump which I could push whenever it lit up green! Kinda weird I remembered that detail lol !

Already had my week post op to dr and won't see him again til February .

I tried a puréed omelet and because it look so gross could not eat it! What I am wondering is if one day of not puréeing my foods and just eating things soft like baked fish etc will make that much difference!
-
Hopingnomeds I have not even gotten to soft foods yet! Jan 2 is when I am suppose to go to soft foods two weeks on that and on to reg foods! I am very cautios because I don't want to be sick but I think I will try a scrambled egg on Monday and see how it goes! Have you had egg yet?
-
Me too Amy c! I am so thankful for that and never, never, never want to go back to insulin shots etc.. I would rather take a handful of vitamins than meds any day!
-
I am like mrs Jekyll And mrs Hyde to put it mildly! There are just times I am sooo hormonal that the food frustrates me! I am suppose to start soft foods jan 2! What is y'all's opinion of me doing it two days early?
-

Yes we are here to support you 100 percent but you still want that from friends and family! Is it more dangerous for you. Because of the barnet disease? -
What are you guys wearing when you go places? I can put on my jeans BUT my tummy doesn't like them! I have one pair of grey jogging pants that are oh so comfy but I can't wear them everyday! I guess I need to go buy at least another pair!
-
Glad you are here and have found us! I am only required 32ox of Water at this time but I know I will need to increase it! I am like you concerning friends family support! They try but it's comforting to talk with people who are going through it and support one another step by step !

Apparently according to some others being moody is normal ! What I was told was that as our bodies lose weight rapidly it releases hormones! I was told that it's like having a girl going through puberty! -
My multivitamin with iron is from bariatric advantage and they have awesome calcium chews from chocolate peanut butter to just plain chocolate! They are yummy
-
Jackie I know my stomach growled but it was gas! Are you really hungry or is tit head hunger? I will sometimes say I am hungry but it's in my head cuz I know it's time to eat!
-

We did this thing at work where we jingled people and all had a stocking! My co workers were wonderful I received no candy but all kinds of goodies! I have lost 22 lbs total from two weeks preop til now! I'm actually a little disappointed that I am not losing now at all!
