Haven't had a felling of fullness

I'm 11 days post op and still currently on full liquids. I haven't had a feeling of being full. Is this normal? I eat about 1/4-1/2 cup of soup, or pudding or yogurts and don't feel fullness. Really wondering why and how this is.

Yeah, it's normal while you're on liquids. They kind of funnel right through your sleeve. Once you start solid food, you'll feel it!

Oh that is good to hear! Thank you!

So glad to hear this - I was sleeved on 9/2 and haven't really felt the total fullness - but I belch a lot - I am so hoping that goes away soon!

I was sleeved the 2nd too. How are you feeling?

liquid usually goes straight through you, so you won’t get that full feeling. Once you go on to more solid foods, you will certainly feel it!

When I had the sleeve, initially I felt that my surgeon hadn’t taken enough away. Had he actually done anything??? Then I had more solids and really knew he had. Give it time, it’ll happen!

I sure hope everyone is right on here about feeling full once you start on more dense (solid) foods. I am always hungry. I am almost one month post-op. Can't wait to eat normal foods again. This liquid diet is terrible and finally feel a tiny bit of satisfaction with yogurt. Ready for the real stuff.
