So since being sleeved three weeks ago today, I have not felt restriction. I could drink fluids freely even in the hospital and can pretty much gulp Water now about half a cup at a time if I want.. When I added yogurts and cottage cheese, I'd measure a half cup and I could just eat the whole thing. On my first day of pureeds I ate a soft scrambled egg and 1/4 cup of refried Beans and yeah, it left me satisfied, but that's way more than most people say they eat at this stage. I started thinking there's something wrong with me!.
Today I graduated to soft meats and fish....
I ate a 1.5 ounce piece of hot bologna (it's a weird spicy canned meat) and as I was chewing the last bite, I actually spit it out because I felt FULL.
For dinner at had 2 ounces of salmon and again opted to spit out that last carefully chewed bite in order to avoid overstuffing myself. YAY! FINALLY after 21 days I feel like I finally know what it FEELS like to be SLEEVED.. and it feels AWESOME!
