My Sleeve is broken

I just graduated to soft foods where I was assured I would feel restricted. My husband cooked me my first soft meal, 2 scrambled eggs. I ate both and still don't feel full. [emoji17] [emoji17] [emoji17]

2 scrambled eggs is 180 calories. I'd hardly constitute thst as a broken sleeve.

You're adjusting to changes, get used to it

Eggs are not a dense protein. When you get to where you are cleared to eat solid, denser foods, like chicken, beef, pork, you will feel the restriction.

Your sleeve is not broken. Just be patient, and when you get to denser foods, you will see.

Eggs are still considered a soft food, so its still early. When you get to things like steak and pork chops you should start feeling something. Don't rush it though. All in its good old time. Let your tummy heal.. THAT is most important right now. And double check you're on acid meds.

also try to remember to look at food differently. Eat until you are no longer hungry. when we were growing up we were always taught to eat until we are full so we considered that the right way. If we eat only when we are hungry and stop when we are no longer hungry, I found I had much better results.

Thanks everyone. It's a bit scary when you feel like you had surgery and it doesn't work.

So many people feel that way but it's rarely true. It's like we have this mentality that since so many other weight loss attempts didn't work, surely there will be a reason this one doesn't work. Anyway, good luck!

Once you eat a denser protein you will feel it. Chicken triggers my restriction hard personally and so does steak. Eggs never triggered restriction for me and now I can't eat them at all as they don't sit well.
