So I have been moved on to mushiness and my last two meals have been great while I was eating them, it's not till about ten minutes later that I realized that I had eaten toooo much. I felt so very full. Overfull.

Is this delay between eating and feeling full typical? Or is it because I an so new to this?

You only eat to be satisfied not to get full. Measure your food and only eat a half cup right now until you are used to it.

Maybe if you eat slower....and I drink a lg glass of water just before my meals....

Good Luck !

Definitely measure your food and eat slowly. I find that if I'm eating something warm, I'll eat so slowly that it becomes cool and then is not very good anymore so I quit eating.

I never knew what satisfied felt like I only knew full and stuffed. So do the 1/2 cup and stop. It doesn't hurt and I too had the experience with food getting cold before I could eat it. I could not believe how little food it took me to get by.

Cold food=business as usual with lap band.

I agree with the 1/2 cup rule! Yesterday I got carried away and thought "I don't feel full, there must still be room". I regretted it around 10 mins later when I was SOO uncomfortable!

It's a huge learning process... Definitely gonna take some time for me to get used to such small portions
