my stomach sounds like an airport sometimes i swear - it does get a little less noisy the further away from surgery. i ate two weeks full liquids- no real food until week 4 - eggs made me puke and hurt even. stay with mashed potatoes, yogurt those items for a bit and yes you feel full after a bite or two - or at least i did . wait a good 30 minutes to drink before a meal and after wait 30 minutes before you drink.... that pocket is tiny

Thank you - glad i am not the only one !!!

Prayers to you , I cannot imagine what you are going through on every level.

I stall a lot I feel like. Then boom 4 pounds comes off. I really have to eat just protein all the time. If i don't the weight doesn't come off , I swear . New to the journey but figuring out my body daily . First one lasted 2.5 weeks at my 3 week mark then again at 7 weeks .... lasted 2 weeks .

i am so sorry - i wish i was closer. I will put you in my prayers for strength.

protein protein protein- I never felt hunger after surgery on the liquid stage but i drank Nectar and Matrix only no other liquids. I had every flavor there was . Still dont feel hunger most the time but i am crazy for 60 minimum of protein a day. I want to eat because it is a habit and I find myself looking for something and have to stop myself. The old habits are still hard to keep broken. Talk yourself up. I am not hungry I think I am... our mind is amazing that way. It will get easier

thank you for the input - i do get hiccups when i am full. I have to figure it out - so i will go slower -i chew forever so that cant be it. maybe i am too quick in between bites. it is crazy. it is not from too much food i can say that as everything is in a bowl that is a ramekin at 4 oz. it fits ! lol

I see where all of you have your weight etc. I do not see an area to enter that info. height, bmi etc

So - does everyone vomit ? I mean 2-3 times a week , it just hits me. My nose begins to run and I vomit- during my meal time or right after. its slimey and gross but when do you worry as to be honest I am not minding it at all...... chicken and I keep trying to consummate and well most the time we dont mix ???? I play with the other proteins and they like me really well.

okay I call mine a pug butt ? as it is just wrinkles ? there is really no butt there , never much to begin with and now a wrinkled one on the side and back- i look like a PUG ! it also now hurts when I sit

I feel your pain. i think i just need to look at each pound as a big thing. I was once 312 pounds, I lost over 85 pounds over a few years. then I just stalled. I had surgery in March ended up with a sleeve per say- dropped the initial 30 pounds and here I am a 1/2 pound a week maybe for the last two months.??? come on, I dont eat much. I puke over any weird thing and my skin looks like a deflated elephant... not feeling it either. So perhaps my rant was just that - no real good advice here just know others are in the same boat?
