So, I had my sleeve on the 16th. I am still on liquids. Things are going well. I'm not having any issues getting Protein or fluids in. Which has me kind of curious. When I get to the next stage how will I know I'm full because right now I'm beginning to feel a little hunger.

You don't want to go all the way to "full." Satiety is the goal: "I feel as though I can eat another spoon or two, but I don't need them. I'm satisfied." Eating slowly and pausing between bites is a sure way to recognize the moment. Not taking the extra bites is one of the factors in the lives of people who've never been obese or maybe not even overweight.

It's great that you're able to get the proteen and fluids.

Nothing special really. Just sugar free hot chocolate and I add gene pro flavorless Protein powder to it. It is a tablespoon=30 grams. I also can tolerate Isopure fruit punch diluted with the diet ocean spray cranberry juice. I have other Isopure flavors I haven't tried to "mix" yet because I can't find what I did with the stupid bottles, lol.

How do you know you're full? Here is my true story from last nights night, Xmas eve dinner. I was sitting at a table across from some people I did not know. I apparently ate one bite too much and had a cross between a hiccup and a burp. I hoped it wasn't loud but when I looked up, I was embarrassed to see laughter in their eyes. Well I said excuse me, put my fork down and sat quietly until I could safely leave e that table. I hope I never have that experience again

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
