I just started eating mushy this week. I read that some people can only eat a few bites and they are full. But I can eat my entire 1/2 cup of food. I'm full after that but why others filling up earlier? Am I going to hurt by staple line if I consistently eat my half cup of food? I'm scared.

I was the same way I had my surgery on June 7th of this year I think it really depends on the food cause I can only eat a half of a boiled egg but can eat a half cup of oatmeal and it thick so I've come to the conclusion it's got to be the food and I know when I'm getting full so I stop then I don't take anymore in cause it hurts and for half the day I'm miserable and it feels like it come back up and then goes back down its horrible ..

I called the insurance coordinator at the surgeon's office. She told me good news. I then heard from the insurance company. Also received a letter from the insurance company.
