Am I full? Help!

Tonight is my first meal. I made 1/2 egg with a 1/8 slice of cheese. It took me a half of an hour to take 2 tiny bites (with a baby fork), chew it to mush and swallow. Now I feel queasy. Is that what full feels like? My paperwork says a portion should be around 1/4 of a cup. I managed less than a tablespoon. Anyone else experience this?

Today is 2 weeks. I met with my Nut and she gave me the all clear. We discussed the egg and cheese and she said that was good. This is the 1st time I've ever had nausea.

I was still on liquids at that point, so I would suggest not pushing it. I couldn't eat a whole egg til about 5-6 weeks

You will be able to eat more further out. In the beginning, when you try a food if it doesn't agree with you, wait a week or so and try it again. Sometimes your stomach is not ready for it even though your diet sheets say you can have it. You may also have internal swelling from the surgery.

You will be able to take in a larger amount soon.

Good luck.

Thanks, going to go for my protein shake instead tonight. Any suggestions for tomorrow? Cottage cheese is on my list.

I'm day 17 had a scrambled egg w/ cheese today and lost it! Went back to shake. Bought some Bob Evans mashed potatoes going to try a small amount later ? First time I've been sick with my sleeve.

I am on day 16.... My thought for the day is " Never trust a fart" Still doing Protein shakes, yogurt, Jello, and clear chicken broth... I did add 3 saltine crackers to my broth, they mushed up in the hot Soup and boy did that taste GOOD!...Good luck everybody :)

Hahahaha that so reminds me of my experience! It get better!

There's a recipe for egg custard on bariatriceating that I've been making weekly. It's delish and I can eat it unlike scrambled eggs still.

Is this it??

eggs were one of the hardest things for Frankensleeve to digest. At the 2 month mark, I was still only eating about 4oz. total for the day. Just be sure and stay hydrated.

Keep Pimpin' that Sleeve!

Redbean yes that's it.

I would say you should still be on liquids based on everything I know and read, at 2 weeks. Don't rush it please. Bad results when you try things too soon.. Best wishes!

Redbean yes that's it.

Thanks. Looks good
