Hey Guys,

I got VSG surgery on November 28th and I was put on the mushy/purse stage for a month. Yesterday and today I snuck in a few pics of rotisserie chicken and I find that I am not full and can continue eating more without feeling full or sick. I know I'm not suppose to but I'm also tired of the same foods everyday. Anyways does anybody know if this is normal . Am I ever gonna feel full ?! Please help

The last thing you want when you are still healing is to feel full. It will hurt like hell.

A few pieces can mean anything, unless you have the exact weights of what you are eating no one is going to be able to tell you if it is normal or not.

The amount of food you can eat with the sleeve is directly relational to the denisty and mositure content of the food. Most rotisserie chickens are overcooked and mushy in texture which being very juicy, so I wouldn't be surprised you could eat a decent amount if it was fresh.

Again you need to weigh measure all your food. It is the only way you can keep track, just randomly eating things and not knowing the amounts is going to be very bad down the road once you are healed.

"Full" is not the goal. The goal is to feel satisfied, as though you think "I can eat a couple of bites more...but I don't need them." It is your job to pay attention so that you're aware of that moment.

I had bypass on 11/29 and immediately after surgery I was ravenously hungry, and have been ever since. When I eat I don't feel full or satisfied, just sick. It's been pretty miserable.
