Hi guys I'm new here and absolutely love this site! I was sleeved on april 14th so I'm about 3 and a half weeks post op on the puree stage now. Down 25 lbs. I'm a little worried because sometimes I don't get that full "feeling" with certain foods and get super full real quick with other foods. Depending on what I'm eating I can definitely put in more than 2 oz. It scares me because I'm still learning to be aware of what and how much I eat. Is this normal though, not "feeling" full with some foods? Thanks!

I had the surgery April 22 and really have yet to feel "full". I stop eating because I feel I should, not because I feel I have to. No hunger, but no real signs of full.

I just started purée, not sure if this will change once I get soft food

I'm eating 400-650 calories per day...which seems high.

I wish I had the infamous sneeze, hiccup or burp that others seem to get

Try thicker foods like refried Beans. Also the drinking rule is very pertinent on whether you feel full or not. But yes, I'm 3 months out and I've learned which foods will keep me full longer, etc

I get the hiccups, loud ones too! But sometimes I feel like it takes a while and more than 2 oz to get there. I don't intentionally eat til the hiccups come, like I said still learning the "you should stop eating now" mindset. Slowly getting there :/

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
