Ok, i am only 2.5 weeks out and i rarely feel full! This is scary to me! What the heck? I ate 2 oz of chicken and 2 oz of cheese for lunch today and maybe, kind of sorta felt full. Has anyone else experienced this? Does this mean im going to be eating too much in the very near future and not loose the weight after all this?

When I was 2-3 weeks post op and eating pureed foods alot of time I dodn't feel full and I would go to bead feeling hungry every night but now that I am eating solid foods in week 6 I do feel full at every meal because I make sure I have protien at each meal which fills me.....I hated protien shakes and couldn't do them so I always felt hungry.

I hope it gets better for you too.

So do think its just because i am still in the mushy stage? Gosh i sure hope so! : - )

VitaleEM....yup, that's it exactly. You won't even feel real restriction until you are on firm solids....then believe me, you WILL stop eating because you cannot eat another bite, and the feeling of fullness can be very uncomfortable.

I do still get hunger, so i eat a snack between meals - like a cheese stick or olives or nuts.

liquids slide in and liquids slide out...so you might not feel full. I measured everything I ate for months. Some of us get a full signal...my early one was the slimies (drool) when full. Now, I sneeze.

Crazy this little sleevie wonder. Take it slow and be patient. Your body and sleeve will change as you heal and go through different food stages.

Congrats on being sleeved!!!! I love my sleeve and have no regrets.

You guys are awesome! Thanks for the good words!

How long do you go now on solids between meals and snacks? Sometimes on mushies I am hungry and hour later and think something is wrong. I wanted to be the one who forgets to eat, lol.

I was hoping i wouldnt be hungry, like some people. No such luck i guess. Im eating fives times a day, about 700 to 800 calories a day, gettimg about 80 to 90 grams of protein a day.
