2 weeks out - first day on soft foods!

I am officially two weeks post-op as of today! I've never been so excited to eat scrambled eggs, and currently working on some chili (mostly the juice and a couple beans).

What I'm having trouble with so far is knowing when I'm full - simply because I'm not hungry even when I start to eat.

I ate about half an egg and stopped this morning because I was afraid of being miserable. I've eaten maybe an 8th a cup of chili and could keep going, (remember I'm not necessarily hungry and wasn't to begin with) to try to get in more calories and Protein, but then again I feel like I should stop to avoid misery.

Has anyone else had trouble knowing they are full without getting to that over-stuffed painful feeling? It's so weird to not be hungry!

I had my surgery on 8/6/2013, I am still rarely hungry and when I eat it is a couple spoons and full. I do not over due it, or I feel sick. It is so awesome though, to not eat plates of food. I start with my protein and if I have room for veggies I eat some, but get so full fast. I eat 4-5 small meals a day, including snack like 8 almonds, or cheese stick.
