Too much food?

I was sleeved on 9/28, and have had an absolute textbook recovery; walking over a mile five days after surgery, doing laundry, getting in all my Water & Protein, and back to work a week after surgery. My question is this: now that I am on puréed food, I thought I would recognize the "full" feeling. I ate a 5.3 oz. cup of oikos yogurt for lunch. Since my dietician said my stomach would initially hold 2ounces, shouldn't I feel stuffed? I feel like I'm satisfied, but not full like I overate. Does the puréed food pass through very quickly like the liquids? Will I not feel truly full until I am on regular food? Doing great, but feeling a little confused.

  • Thank you, everyone. I ordered a food scale and will be measuring all of my meals. Hardest thing will be slowing down. I'm a fast eater. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

  • I am 3 1/2 weeks post op. Can eat puréed chicken and ground turkey and veggies. About 1/2 cup I feel stuffed. I ate too much one time and it seemed to "get stuck" in my throat. So, I stick to 1/2 cup
