3 weeks post op and feel no restriction

I will be 3 weeks post op on wed and I feel no restriction from my sleeve yet . Is this normal? I feel I can drink as much as I want, when I eat my shakes or creamy soups I never get a full feeling. Has anyone else experienced this ?

I've heard people on here say u will feel the restriction when u start eating more solid foods. Liquids flow easier through the sleeve.

I didn't feel any restriction on liquids. When I went to puree, I started feeling restriction depending on what I ate. eggs gave me a lot of restriction but cottage cheese doesn't fill me up at all. Now that I'm eating ground turkey and beef, I really feel it. At 6 weeks, I'm at around 2 oz.

I had rny and feel the same way, I feel like I could eat normal but of course I don't try it. I'm only eating very soft things. Scrambled egg and cottage cheese is probably as far as I push it right now. I'm almost 2 weeks out.

I am also 3 weeks post op with the same lack of feeling " full". I am trying to make sure I stick to 4oz at time to make sure it isn't a result of the incision that severed nerves that need time to heal.

I am one week and one day post op today and was talking with Gail my patient coordinator from the hospital, I love her. I was concerned with how much I was getting down a day. I am getting in all my Protein and my Water, grant it it will take me about an hour or so do finish a shake but I'm doing it. I guess I am feeling full since I am not feeling hungry? If that makes sense?

Gail says I am doing just great and to keep doing what I am doing. She also said like other that have posted when you start eating more dense foods you will feel fuller faster and not be able to get as much down,.

I have decided to be extremely happy with my progress and thank my lucky stars!!!

Great in fo from all
