I felt like my swelling went down at about 7 weeks. Hopefully it's still a bit swollen, because that means I'm going be even smaller soon.

Took me about 7 or 8 weeks but everyone is different and it depends on how difficult it was for the surgeon to work on your stomach. I like to think mine is still swollen but I think its all those layers of fat still sitting there.

I was 3 1/2 months out before my stomach felt "normal". But I had also been on medication that was very irritating, so I may have felt better sooner without it. I still have outstanding restriction, but things feel better in my sleeve when I do eat. How much can you eat in a sitting? I know you posted about eating 4 months out, so just wondering what you are able to do.
