I was sleeved jan 16 and have had a really easy time. I can tolerate most everything I try (full liquids) and have no problem with Water.

However the last few days I have been able to eat an entire take out container (8oz I think?) of strained creamed Soups. This seems like a lot to me, but if I only eat half of it I'm still hungry. Granted I don't eat much else in the day (drink a lot of water) and it takes me about 45 mins to an hour to eat it, but it takes that whole amount to "fill me up". I still am not entirely sure what full feels like on this new stomach.

Just need some feedback. Seems like more food than others can handle at only a bit over a week out. I have another week of full liquids.

Am afraid this means the surgery won't work well for me. Doesn't help that I'm already at a stall. Lost 20 pounds pre op and 8-10 since surgery, depending which scale I'm going by, mine is less than doctors.

I was sleeved Jan 17, today is only my second day off of Clear Liquids. I have lost 13.4 pounds since surgery.

I can also eat 8oz of Soup and it will take me 45 minutes as well. It was suggested to me to stop at 30 minutes.

That is what I have been doing and getting rid of the "leftovers" so I don't think about them. I think part of it is the old brain trick of having to clean your plate.

I definitely think you are taking too long to eat. With liquids they pass thru more quickly so by the time you are at 45mins what you ate at the beginning has passed thru. That's the whole notion of "sliders."

Stop after half an hour and move on. You don't need to be full, just satiated/not hungry anymore.

I can drink a cup of tomato soup, sure. But I think that's because it's a liquid. I was sleeved Jan 14th.

Sleeved on the 17th, I can eat creamed soup, apple sauce and yoplait greek yogart. And it is a wonderful experince to enjoy these new additions of food to my menu!
