Post surgery question

Hi everyone!
I had my VSG procedure on August 10,2017. I'm feeling really good and I'm on soft/pureed foods. I've been struggling with not feeling satisfied. I've never been the one to like feeling full or stuffed after eating but I don't know what else I can do. I'm trying to increase my water intake. Does anyone have any ideas?

I found that the sensation of being to chew is what helped me feel satisfied, so you could be lacking that, and so you may just have to tell yourself "it'll get better soon!" Another thing is making sure everything you eat is high in protein, since protein also can help you feel more satisfied.

Popsicles were what saved my life. Popsicles and sugar free jello. They felt like "real food". Once I was past that, I ate a lot of eggs. Since I didn't have to do anything "weird" to the eggs to make them soft/pureed, they were really good for me too.

AND OHHHHH have you tried the ricotta bake ?! Man I haven't seen anyone talk about eggface's Ricotta Bake in forever on these forums. It was my JAM on purees, it was salty and a little sweet and you had to chew it a tiny bit but not too much....
