Well lucky me then.

I am assuming that once i start solids i will have more restriction?

Right now i am comfortable with 1/4 cup....

[KindaFamiliar 3,867]

Definitely lucky @

I was similarly fortunate...

Take full advantage of the situation...

And enjoy the restriction!!!

I still struggle with more than half to 3/4 of a cup at 14 months out (on Monday)...

[NeedaBreak4Me 1,755]

Ok... as long as i am not the only abnormal one with such a simple pain free recovery. .. i started wondering if he cut me up n forgot to do the rest!! Lol

Good Im doing well but feeling hunger i dont know if its normal I started pureed food today so hope it will stop the hunger.

Hey Aussiegirl, did you say you are 2 DAYS post op and eating pureed food? My Dr had me on liquid only for 2 weeks, pureed for two weeks (which is where I am now) then I have mashed for 2 weeks prior to soft solids. All this so the stomach has time to heal. I also have had a fairly smooth run. Good luck to you but confirm with your medical team that you can have pureed 2 days out please?

Hey Slyvie, i had the hunger and puree definately helps. I am surprised at how much i can eat but it is still tiny compared to what i am used to.

[BCs 1000 364]

Does the feeling go away after you eat or is it still there?

I had an uncomfortable 'empty' feeling for the first month which I thought could be hunger, but I realised eating wasn't helping it much either. Later I realised it was reflux and started medication. I don't have that feeling anymore.
