I had my surgery Oct. 14th less than 2 weeks ago, at 7 days out I had lost 23 pounds since surgery which was great! But now when eating I feel absolutely no restriction, I have alot of weight to lose, I lost almost 100 pre op. I was able to eat 2 scrambled eggs no problem yesterday! That scares me, and I don't know what to do, what I read that is really abnormal- Has anyone else not felt any restriction? Or will restrictions come at the next stage?

You will feel more restriction with more dense food.

You will feel more restriction later when you are eating more solid foods. Some people feel it at this stage and some people don't. I was one of those people who didn't feel restriction at that stage, but I certainly do now.

Sleeve it and it will come

I agree with the others above, you will feel more restriction with denser foods. That said, this may be a case of just because you can, doesn't mean you should. At this stage, especially because you won't be feeling much restriction, you should measure or weigh out what you plan to eat and not eat any more. Did you surgeon give you any guidelines as to how much you should be eating at this phase? Mine allowed 3 tablespoonfuls of food per meal while on purees, so I would have measured 3 T. of scrambled egg, eaten that, and stopped.

I feel your pain! I felt no restrictions either at the first stages and I'm now on solid foods. I still find myself over eating sometimes. The guilt is horrible! Just yesterday I had too much and I'm now afraid to get on the scale! But I agree with the above posts...measure everything and only eat that! At my stage my doctor has recommended 2oz every 2 hours (2x2). It works for me and lets my mind know that in just two short hours I can eat again. My surgery was on sept 30 and I've lost 36 lbs so far. So I'm happy and getting use to my new eating style.

Eating in the morning, which I assume is when you ate the eggs, allows for more capacity in my experience. Eggs are easy to get down for me as well. They are a staple due to their protein content. Chickens are a sleevers friend.

Thanks everyone!I didn't get guidelines on how much at a time, just a list of foods. I agree probably shouldn't of done it, you live and you learn. Hopefully more restriction does come in time.
