I'm about 6 weeks post op. the past month I've been able to eat a little more than I thought i'd be able to and just the other day all of a sudden I'm getting full off a single bite. Is this common or should I worry?

I'm six weeks post op as well and feel that I can eat more than I thought I would. I don't know if what you are experiencing is common, but I hope it happens to me!

When you're in the stages of blender foods and soft foods, you really can hold a little more because the runnier the texture, the more quickly it goes through (that's why no drinking with food). When you start to eat more solid foods like chicken or tuna- BAM. You're full right now. Is this what you've experienced? Is it the more solid foods suddenly making you more full?

Actually I've been on solids for 2 weeks now. So this whole eating and bam full thing is not what has been going on. That's why I'm worried. I have an appt to see my surgeon. Or well his assistant, to see if I have any leaks and I will ask her about it.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
