Is it possible? I'm not starving but I'm sure I could eat more i just dont! I must admit I am curious if I will get sick or feel really full if I eat a bit more. Drinking i can chugga chug! I am going on 2 months out. I've lost 33 lbs so losing, I'm just scared about whether I have stretched my pouch, if I even have one!

Hello! I start full liquids tomorrow and I am so happy! I'd love to hear some creative recipes, ideas, suggestions? I've been sooo good through this entire process and I want to continue to stay on track! Thanks in advance for all your help!

Thank you soo much! Good to know! I've got 2 weeks until mushy so I'll let you know! Thanks again!

I'm the same with my sleeve 9 days out! I bet if I wanted to I could chug a big giant glass of water! I'm scared to because I'm afraid to stretch my stomach as I'm already thinking its too big! I had a balloon 2 years ago and it actually made me hungrier! I never got nausau or any discomfort so I'm afraid I'm headed down the same path! Helppp

Hi Lillimint! So I am 9 days out from sleeve surgery. I'm sorry to hear about all your troubles. I Don't want to rub it in but I've had the opposite. I've felt great and was surprised by this. I do have to say that this in itself is a problem for me because I don't know if after all this if the sleeve is working. I think if I was told I had to i could drink 8oz all at once. I'm not starving but I could surely eat if I was allowed. I've stuck to my pre and post op diets to a tee! I actually wish a had a wee bit of what you went through so I can rest assure this will work for me! I'm glad you are on the mend. I just thought that it might be nice to hear from someone who actually was envious of you! Good luck and hopefully we will both be successful in our journey ahead!

Ahh you scared me! I thought i was premature with my prediet! The 8th is 2 weeks before the 22! Or at least I hope so? Deb

Thank you everyone for the wonderful responses! I'm looking forward to this exciting time in my life! Thanks for making the unknown a lot less scary!

Thank you!! Just what I needed to hear! I wonder if any studies have been done on hunger after the sleeve vs no hunger? I'd love to take a poll, I'm sure the no hunger would outweigh the hunger but who knows? Thanks again!!! Be Well!

Hello, I will be having gastric sleeve ...probably not until summer with whats going on in the world. I am super nervous about being hungry! I had Orbera gastric Balloon and I was starving all the time! Worst mistake I ever made! So... I'm afraid this will be a repeat. What scares me even more is feeling like crap because I feel hungry. Such as...light headed, dizzy, foggy brain. I need to be able to work and it scares me that I will be a hungry walking zombie. I need some encouragement and inspiration...please! Thanks!
