I'd like to hear back from OP...

I hate feeling full! HATE it! Personally I think that your desire to feel full, rather than "not hungry" or disinterested in food may be a psychological issue... Do you? Have a big think about why you got surgery and butterthebean/other posters have provided some good advice about why physically you may not be full...

Oh and anyone care to talk in grams! Can't picture 4-8 oz :(

Hey it's funny but just checked out another thread that says acid reflux can cause hunger feelings... Try a medicine for this?

I think alot of us are in the states and don't regularly use grams. It would be difficult to talk in grams, just as ounces are a mystery to you. I find this online conversion tool EXTREMELY helpful ;)http://www.onlineconversion.com/weight_volume_cooking.htm

Seems a bit strange to me that you didn't feel full sooner. I am 5 1/2 weeks out, last night I went to a wedding and ate 2 cocktail size meatballs, a carrot, 3 green Beans and 2 chucks of watermelon over a 30 minute period of time. I was full, in fact I had to get up and walk around because I felt uncomfortably full. I know everyone's different, but I can barely eat more than a few ounces of anything. Maybe try to eat slower and chewing your food thoroughly, you might find yourself feeling full before you can ingest a full 8oz. Give it time, for me it wasn't a mistake. I've lost 30 lbs. since surgery, I feel better (BP is 106/68), look better and have gotten tons of compliments on how great I look. Definitely not a mistake for me! Hope things improve for you.

4 oz is roughly 120 grams and 8 oz is roughly 240grams... I am a nurse and I have lived in the UK and Australia so metrics were a must lol

Yeah sorry about the oz/gram thing I was just soooo anti-googling right then! Yeah in aus 3 oz is about the size of our regular one-serve tunas tins and it's the amount I eat in one sitting pre-sleeve. Although to be fair if you sat like 20 oz of tuna in front of me I could polish it off but would feel very fishy :~o

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

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

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      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?
