annoyed with my sleeve

So I have this lovely 2oz piece of salmon that I lovingly marinated in soy honey and freshly grated ginger, also on my plate are a few green Beans and 2 one inch squares of watermelon cut into itty bitty pieces. Do you think I can eat any of it? Nope. Less than half of the Salmon chewed to death and swallowed and I'm full.

blink.gif Such a lovely dinner...

I just have to laugh at the absurdity of it laugh.gif It's crazy how one day I can eat this exact amount of food, and the next I can hardly eat anything.tongue.gif

Ohh, that's so sad. What a terrible waste. Maybe you can finish it off later. Or is re-heated salmon tolerable?

Just think, you can have it for lunch tomorrow... and dinner.. and lunch the day after.. so on and so on LMAO!!

we usually go out and eat and I have lunch the next day, dinner the next day and lunch for work..lol. I would rather spread it out over a couple of days then to eat it in one sitting.

It is so annoying, isn't it? I just made a delicious turkey roll up (deli meat) with pepper jack cheese n jalapenos grilled to perfection and three lil bites n I'm stuffed! I cut it in half and am taking it to work for lunch.... Crazy how we wanna eat it all as if we were never sleeved!! D'oh!! Lmao!!!

it's not even that I served myself too much. LOL. I served an appropriate amount of salmon, like a dozen cut green beans and less than 1/4 cup of watermelon. Perfectly sensible and similar to dinners I have eaten before without trouble. Three bites of salmon and I was done. LOL. I'll probably have it as a bedtime snack.laugh.gif

I have days where I'm only able to get in small bite size of fruit so I'll just have a fruit day with plenty of Water and I'm full all day and late into the nite. At first I was annoyed by it but like you i'm glad my sleeve is saving me from myself to. LoL!

Yep. Some days I can eat a whole scrambled egg--some days, 3/4 of a scrambled egg, and some days 1/2 of a scrambled egg. Same size eggs, prepared the same, even the same time of day...but my sleeve says, "Thanks, I'm done!"

I had the most lovely burger yesterday. Sauteed in Worcestershire sauce, topped with provolone cheese...

Couldn't eat even half.

All done!

I just wanna eeeeeat it! lol

I have days like that and I am 2 years out. One day I am really afraid that I stretched my sleeve and the next day a few bites and I am too full to finish my meal.

I am glad I had as upper GI while I am here in Mexicali. It showed my sleeve has stretched the exact amount it has supposed to at 2 years.

I agree it is annoying. I can barely leave the food, I really really need to finish my plate. It's so mental. I thank God everyday for that full feeling!
