Coming up to 1 yr post op

11 months months out & I've lost over 100 lbs. Throughout the time I've noticed I can sometimes eat more than usual & by that I don't mean over eating. It simply takes more to get me full than other times. This varies from day to day & I don't understand why... One day I can eat a cup of veggie soup, the next I can barely get a cup down. I'm not complaining just bad for when I want to measure all my meals. I've heard several ppl mention this after weight loss surgery but I don't know if they all have a day to day, & even within the same day, reaction. What causes this? Is this normal? Who has this same concern besides me?

    I'm a little over 3 years post-op, and have the same experience. Mornings, seems like I can eat more, afternoons/evenings, less. Some days I can hardly eat anything. Certain foods make a difference

  • Yeah... chicken tenderloin are generally the same (1-2) but fish varies. I bake nearly all the meats I consume... 4oz fish fillets I used to be able to eat the whole thing but now if I'm really starvi

  • Oh I completely understand. @@naturreal I just roll with it as long as I'm feeling good.

Yeah... chicken tenderloin are generally the same (1-2) but fish varies. I bake nearly all the meats I consume... 4oz fish fillets I used to be able to eat the whole thing but now if I'm really starving I get less down. I've noticed the hungrier I get the less I eat. Soup is crazy to me cuz it's never consistent, whether its just both or veggie or meat inside, doesn't matter.

My nut says that soup should be drained and eat the solids 1/2 hr apart from the liquid

@@naturreal I do the same thing some days I can eat ok and others I would rather just drink shakes. :)

Yesterday I drunk a shake only because I had to get my protein in but wasn't hungry at all... The night before I was starving & I ate chicken tenderloin & broccoli. It's not so much as irritating as it is trying to understand what is going on...
